Bread & Butter: History, Culture, Recipes

Richard Snapes, Grant Harrington & Eve Hemingway · Bread & Butter: History, Culture, Recipes

I first tried sourdough treacle tart at Silo in Brighton, I don’t know why I hadn’t thought of it before – a classic recipe, staying true to the age-old ethic of using up old bread, but doing it in a more delicious way. It goes without saying that this is a very sweet dessert. I’ve offset it here with a lot of lemon, and the tang of the sourdough also goes some way to balancing it, but ultimately this is for those with a really sweet tooth.
