Are Martin's Potato Rolls really made from potatos ?!
Answers:
Yep- they make them like this:
Potato Bread
1 potato, peeled and diced
1 1/2 cups water
2 (!.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast
6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons shortening
1 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
In a medium saucepan cook potato cubes in water for about 12 minutes, or until tender!. Do not drain!. Cool mixture to 110 degrees F (43 degrees C)!. Set aside 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid!. Mash potato and remaining liquid; if necessary add warm water to make 2 cups potato mixture!.
In a large mixing bowl, sprinkle yeast on reserved 1/2 cup potato water!. Add mashed potato mixture, 2 cups of the flour, sugar, shortening, and salt!. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed for 1/2 minute, scraping sides of bowl constantly!. Beat 3 minutes at high speed!. Stir in as much of the remaining flour as you can mix in by hand!.
Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface!. Knead in enough of the remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough!. Knead for 6 to 8 minutes, or until dough is smooth and elastic!. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn once to grease surface!. Cover!. Let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour!.
Punch down, and turn out onto a lightly floured surface!. Divide dough in half!. Cover, and let rest for 10 minutes!. Shape each half into a loaf!. Place in greased 8 x 4 x 2 inch loaf pans!. Cover!. Let rise until nearly double, about 35 minutes!. Before baking, brush tops with a little water and dust with additional flour!.
Bake at 375 degree F (190 degrees C) for 40 to 45 minutes!. Cover with foil for the last 15 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning!. Remove from pan; cool on wire rack!.
