After several versions, Noe our baker has finalized the potato bread to put it into production for our bread program. We were mainly working on the consistency of the bread, and the holding time from when it comes out of the oven until serving time later that night. Of course we have natural variations between a humid rainy day when the bread gets baked longer, and a dry sunny day when the bread get a shorter baking time to compensate. The keys have been adjusting the amount of fat and the amount of the Polish dough going into the recipe. On the shape, we decided a large cannele mold conducts the heat very well and creates a nice crust while keeping the moisture on the inside.
Polish Dough Recipe
Ingredients:
1000 gr AP flour
1000 gr water
4 gr yeast
Method:
Mix all the ingredients together and place in a warm place for 12 hours.
Potato and Garlic
Ingredients:
800 gr Yukon Gold potato
100 gr garlic
20 gr sea salt
40 gr olive oil
Method:
Season the Yukon Gold potatos and whole garlic with sea salt and olive oil.
Bake in a combi oven at 140C for 45 minute with 10% humidity.
Press the garlic though a sieve to get the pulp.
Peel the potato and mash.
Dough
Ingredients:
1400 gr AP flour
100 gr sugar
400 gr butter
12 gr yeast
44 gr sea salt
400 gr Yukon Gold potato pulp
50 gr garlic pulp
300 gr water
200 gr whole milk
120 gr olive oil
2000 gr Polish dough
Method:
Mix the AP flour, sugar, butter, yeast, potato pulp, garlic pulp, water, milk, olive oil and Polish together for 4 minutes. Add the salt. Mix for 4 more minutes in slow and 1 minutes in fast.
Place the dough in a bowl and let rest for 30 minutes. Punch the dough and roll it. Leave it rest for another hour.
Divide the dough into 20 gr pieces, roll them and let them rest for 30 minutes.
Roll them again and place them in the cannele mold, already brushed with butter. Let the dough rise for one hour.
At this point they are baked at 250C for 15 minutes, removed from the mold and let cool down over a rack.
Very inspiring! Thank you!

Did you use fresh or dry yeast?

They look scrumptious, two of my favourite carbs!

If you don't have the small molds can you bake them in a muffin pan or regular loaf pan for bread? Would you adjust temperature and baking time?

It takes two to make a quarrel.
