I’ve made bread with beer in the past, but this is the first time I’m making Guinness Bread. Well, it works out similar to a bread with blonde beer. This is not a version of an Irish soda bread with Guinness. I’m going to try that as well. But this is a version of a

How to Bake with Fresh Yeast
When I started baking I used only fresh yeast. It was how I learned to bake bread and sweet loafs. As it is not easy to find fresh yeast in UK, I’ve switched to dried yeast and I usually use easy bake yeast. As more and more ethnic shops appear on the high street, I’ve
