Steps:
- 1. Cook potatoes in 1/2 cup water until soft. Strain cooking liquid into bowl and save. Mash potatoes and set aside.
- 2. In a small bowl, combine the 3/4 cup warm water, sugar and yeast. Gently stir to combine and set aside for 5-6 minutes to "bloom".
- 3. Meanwhile, in a very large bowl, combine the flour, sugar and salt. Add the water, potatoes, butter and yeast mixture. Mix well with a wooden spoon. (At this point, if the mixture seems dry add a little more water. If the mixture is too wet, add a little more flour.)
- 4. Mix with hands and knead for about 2-3 minutes to incorporate all of the ingredients. Mixture will be slightly sticky but should not stick too much to side of bowl.
- 5. Cover and let rise in a warm draft-free place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- 6. Punch down dough and knead for 2-3 minutes using additional flour as needed to prevent sticking. Dough should feel smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl and turn dough to coat. Cover and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- 7. Punch down dough and knead for 2-3 minutes using additional flour as needed to prevent sticking.
- 8. Divide dough in half and form each half into a round loaf. Place each loaf on a parchment-lined baking sheet that has been sprinkled with cornmeal.
- 9. Cover and let rise 1 hour. Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- 10. When ready to bake, cut an "X" on top of each loaf. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped with fingertip.
- 11. Brush each loaf with melted butter and cool on wire rack.
- 12. To store, wrap in waxed paper and then place in a plastic bag.
- 13. ****Note**** 1 2-ounce cake of yeast is equivalent to 1 strip (3 1/4-ounce packets) of active dry yeast.

POTATO BREAD
Is this potato bread from Copenhagen time-consuming? Yes, but unattended for the most part. There are a few unusual aspects to this recipe that produces a batch of warm, buttery, flaky little breads. With the yogurt and slow-rising, they deliver a pleasing touch of sourness. And the way the dough is shaped, by making many folds, gives the breads an inviting flakiness. Though baking rounds is what the chef suggests, I also prepared it by forming about 15 small balls of dough, placing them next to one another in a buttered layer-cake pan and baking them until golden, without grilling first, to turn them into a batch of Parker House rolls.

Steps:
- Place potatoes in a saucepan, cover with water to a depth of 1 inch, bring to a boil, lower heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife. Drain potatoes and set aside to cool. When cool, peel potatoes and place in a zipper-close plastic bag with 1/2 tablespoon of the salt. Seal bag and shake to distribute the salt. Press down on the potatoes to crush them.
- Stir the yogurt in a bowl and stir in yeast. Set aside 5 minutes. Place potatoes in the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment. Add the yogurt mixture and remaining salt and process on low speed until just mixed. Gradually add 3 2/3 cups of the flour, or a little more as needed for the mixture to come together as a dough. It will be a little sticky. Knead by hand, adding more flour if necessary, to make a fairly smooth ball of dough. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature 3 to 4 hours.
- Refrigerate at least overnight and up to 2 days.
- To make breads, remove dough from refrigerator for 2 hours. Cover a baking sheet with parchment. Flour a work surface and turn ball of dough out onto it. Pull a golf-ball-size piece of the dough off and set it aside to refrigerate and use as starter for subsequent batches. Divide remaining dough in 8 portions. Form one portion into a disk. Stretch one side of the disk out and fold it back on top. Turn disk and repeat 9 times. With floured hands, form the disk into a ball, then flatten it back into a disk shape about 3 1/2 inches in diameter and about 1/2 inch thick. Place on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining dough. Breads can be cooked immediately or set aside for up to 2 hours.
- Heat a grill or stovetop grill pan on medium-high. Place disks of dough on grill or pan a minute or so, enough for a crust to form on the outside without coloring. Turn and repeat on the other side. Transfer rounds to the baking sheet. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Brush dough with melted butter on both sides.
- Bake rounds 5 minutes. Turn over, brush tops with more butter and continue baking 6 to 10 minutes more, until a knife slipped into the side comes out clean. Transfer breads to a rack to cool. To serve, warm breads 10 minutes in a 300-degree oven and wrap in a napkin.

This bread's firm crust is reminiscent of the old-fashioned potato bread recipes my grandmother used to make. I let my stand mixer (with a dough hook) do most of the work for me.-Martha Clayton, Utopia, Texas
