Time 3h

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 baking potato, peeled and cut into large chunks, or 1 cup leftover mashed potatoes
1 cup milk
1 1/2 tablespoons lard
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon dry yeast
1/3 cup warm water
5 cups bread flour

Steps:

  • Boil potato until soft. Drain and reserve cooking liquid. Press the potato through a food mill.
  • Scald milk and combine with 1/2 cup reserved cooking liquid. Combine liquids and potato with lard, butter, salt, and sugar in small bowl. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, combine yeast and warm water, and set aside until foamy. When potato mixture has cooled, add yeast mixture. Add flour and knead with a dough hook, on an electric mixer, until smooth and glossy, about 7 minutes.
  • Transfer to a buttered bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and set aside in warm place to rise about 1/2 hour. Punch dough down and briefly knead. Butter a 9 by 5 by 3-inch loaf pan. Place dough in pan, cover with plastic, and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake 30 minutes, until bread sounds hollow when tapped.
