Roasted Garlic Potato Bread Recipe

Cooking is a science and of course a skill. Only with a good method can we make delicious dishes. Today I will introduce to you a method of making roasted garlic potato bread that is both delicious and pleasing to the eyes!

1. First wash the potatoes and wrap them with plastic wrap.

2. Heat the potatoes in the microwave on high for 6 minutes

3. Take out the potatoes. The potatoes are very hot, so be sure to wear heat-insulating gloves! Remember! You can use a toothpick to check the hardness of the potato. If it is still too hard, continue to heat it in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.

4. Put the potatoes in a bowl, peel them while they are still hot, and mash them with a fork. Because we are making bread, we will not do any other processing. If you want to eat it directly, you can add milk and appropriate seasonings such as salt, black pepper, etc. and mix well.

5. Wrap the whole head of garlic in tin foil and bake in an oven preheated to 205 degrees for 30 minutes. The reason for covering with tin foil and baking for 30 minutes is to prevent excessive water loss during the baking process. After cooling, cut off the top, squeeze into garlic paste, measure out 1 tablespoon (15 ml) and set aside

6. Mix yeast, salt, sugar, mashed potatoes, mashed garlic and warm water in a large container. The yeast does not need to be completely dissolved. Then add high-gluten flour and stir with a wooden spoon until the mixture is evenly distributed and there is no dry powder. This step can be completed in a few minutes. Cover with a lid (no need to seal), ferment at room temperature for two hours, then refrigerate overnight. I usually put it in the fridge once I’m done and continue working on it the next day.

7. After one day in the refrigerator, the dough will double in size.

8. Take it out before starting to make bread

9. Wet your hands with water, then quickly grab the dough and cut it with scissors. If your hands feel sticky, wet your hands again and gently pull the top layer of dough to tighten it to the bottom and make it into a ball. Then place on a pizza peel lined with baking paper and let rest for 1 hour. Before baking, sprinkle enough dry powder on the surface of the dough and cut out the desired texture.

10. 20 minutes before baking, place the baking stone on the second to last layer of the oven and place an empty baking tray on the bottom layer. After preheating at 230 degrees for 20 minutes, slide the dough on the pizza peel onto the baking stone, quickly pour a cup of boiling water on the baking sheet, and close the oven door to retain the steam. Bake for about 35 minutes or until the surface of the bread is firm. Larger or smaller doughs will require an adjusted baking time

11. Take out the bread and put it on the rack to cool, then slice it

Although the method of roasted garlic potato bread is simple, it is also the result of my sweat and hard work. I believe that you are different and can definitely create different delicacies.
