Potato Bread
Three and one-half quarts of sifted flour, one boiled potato, large; one quart of warm water, one teacupful of yeast, or one compressed yeast cake, one even desertspoonful of salt; mix at night, put the flour in a large bowl, hollow a place in the center for the potato mashed, water and salt. Stir in flour enough to make a smooth batter; add yeast, stir in the rest of the flour. Put the dough on the flour board; knead fifteen minutes, using barely enough flour to prevent sticking. Flour the bowl, lay the dough in it, cover and have to rise. In the morning mold into loaves, when light, prick and bake in a moderate oven.
