Greystons Potato Onion Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Put the potatoes in a large pot of unsalted water; bring to a simmer and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then return them to the pot over low heat, shaking until they are dry, about 1 minute. Rice or mash the potatoes using a food mill or potato masher.
• Peel the onion, cut off the ends and slice crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. (You should have 4 slices.) Lay the slices flat on a large plate and sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon of the sour cream and onion seasoning.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium low until it shimmers. Add the onion slices, seasoned-side up, and cook until the onions are fairly soft and the bottoms turn slightly golden-brown, about 6 minutes. Flip the onions and sprinkle each of the four exposed sides with another 1/2 teaspoon of the sour cream and onion seasoning. Remove the skillet from the heat.
• Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the sour cream and onion seasoning in a large bowl. Stir in the mashed potatoes, breaking up any clumps, until the potatoes are well-coated with flour.
• Whisk together the milk, sour cream and egg in a separate large bowl. Add the milk mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just combined. The batter will be heavy and thick; do not overmix.
• Scrape the batter into the skillet over the onions and use a knife or spatula to smooth the top. Bake until the loaf is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to unmold. If the onions stick to the pan, gently lift from the skillet and place back on top of the loaf. Sprinkle with the dried chives. Let cool another 20 minutes before serving.
• Whisk together the chives, buttermilk powder, onion powder, salt, nutritional yeast, garlic powder and sugar. Store extra mix in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Makes about 1/4 cup.

Steps:

• Place potato and onion in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Drain; mash until potatoes are smooth (about 3/4 cup); set aside., In bread machine pan, place the milk, mashed potato, egg, butter, honey, cheese, parsley, salt, pepper, flour and yeast in order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water or flour if needed)., When cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Divide into thirds. Shape each into an 18-in. rope. Place ropes on a greased baking sheet and braid; pinch ends to seal and tuck under. , Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Uncover; brush top with beaten egg. Sprinkle with additional cheese. Bake at 350° for 25-35 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan to a wire rack.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and sugar in warm water. Let stand until creamy, about 10 minutes.
• Stir salt, shortening, minced onions, oregano and 2 cups bread flour into yeast mixture. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
• Stir dough to deflate and place it into a lightly greased 9x5 inch loaf pan. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise until the top of the dough is within 1/2 inch of the top of the pan, about 40 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• After loaf has risen, arrange onion slices on top of the loaf. Pour melted butter over the slices and bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from pan to cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Boil potatoes until very tender.

• On lightly floured surface knead in enough flour so that dough is no longer sticky. Knead well until elastic.
• Place dough in greased bowl and let rise until double in size. Then punch down and form 3 loaves. To make buns, form dough into 3" round buns.
• Place loaves in 3 greased loaf pans and let rise again until double. Then brush on egg wash.
• Bake in a pre-heated oven at 350°F for 50 minutes or until bottom of loaves sound hollow. Remove from pans. Let cool on racks.
• For buns, place on greased baking trays and let rise. Brush with egg wash. Bake buns for 30 minutes. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Heat half the oil in a pan and gently soften the onions and garlic for 15-20 mins until really soft and sticky but not browned. Put the onions, tomatoes (halve the large ones), herbs, sugar and breadcrumbs in a baking dish, season well and toss together.
• Drizzle with the remaining oil, scatter with a few more herb sprigs and bake for 1 hr until going golden on top and the tomatoes are juicy.

Steps:

• Dissolve the yeast in the warm water and then add the honey, milk powder, salt, oil, potatoes and onion, stirring well. Gradually stir in 1 1/2 cups of flour.
• Add 2 more cups of the flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough is stiff. Turn onto a lightly floured board and knead in enough flour until the dough is no longer sticky.
• Continue kneading for about 15 minutes and then place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl. Cover the bowl loosely with plastic wrap and set in a warm place to rise until dough is doubled in volume, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove dough from bowl, punch it down and shape into a ball. Return to bowl, cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 40 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Punch down the dough again and turn onto a lightly floured board . Divide the dough in half and knead one piece, adding about 1/4 cup or more of flour to make the dough stiff enough to hold a round shape.
• Form a ball and then fold the dough inward while rotating it against the board to form a mushroom cap. Repeat this rotation 10 times. Lay the ball of dough on its side and roll and press the dough against the board about 10 times, continuing to keep the round shape. Repeat with the other ball.
• Place both balls on a buttered baking sheet and let them rise in a warm place, lightly covered with plastic wrap, for about 25 minutes. Brush the loaves with egg wash and make 2 quarter-inch-deep slashes to form a cross in each.
• Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the loaves are golden and produce a hollow sound when tapped on the bottom. Cool at least 1 hour before slicing.
