Potato Bread And Buns With Potato Starch Recipes

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in warm water in a bowl. Let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
• Mix milk, mashed potatoes, shortening or butter (see Cook's Note), sugar, and salt together in a bowl; add yeast mixture and egg. Stir 2 cups flour into the milk mixture until incorporated. Stir in remaining 2 cups flour to make a soft dough.
• Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 7 minutes. Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning once to coat all sides of dough with oil. Cover bowl and put in a warm place until dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Punch dough down and shape into a ball. Cover the bowl and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
• Shape dough into 24 rolls and place onto prepared baking sheets; let rise until dough springs back when you touch the side of a roll with your fingertip, about 25 to 40 minutes.
• Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients well and let sit covered for 10 minutes. Knead for 5 to 8 minutes and tip onto the counter dusted lightly with flour.
• Stretch the dough into a rectangular shape and fold it letter-style top to bottom and side to side.
• Place in an oiled straight-sided container and cover with plastic wrap. After 15 minutes, stretch and fold the dough again and return to the container.
• When the dough is twice it's initial size, remove from bowl and on lightly floured surface, divide into 10 pieces weighing 85 g each (approximately).
• Round each piece on the counter by pressing down as you circulate your hand in a counter-clockwise direction until the piece is a smooth ball.
• Press each dough ball flat with floured hands, repeating as needed over the next 10 minutes and place on a pan or sheet lined with parchment paper.
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Cover with oiled plastic and let proof for about 30 minutes or so until the dough has risen about 1 1/2 times it's volume.
• Brush with egg wash if desired and bake for 7 minutes.
• Rotate pan and bake for 7 more minutes until 190F internally.
• Cool buns on a rack until room temperature.
