Rewena Bread (New Zealand)
Serves 1
Ingredients
Method
1 Large Potato, Peeled and Diced
1 tsp. Sugar
1½ g. Active Dry Yeast
500 g. Flour
1 tsp. Salt
200 ml. Water
Boil the potato until tender, then mash with the sugar and 200 ml of the cooking water. Cool to room temperature, then sprinkle with the yeast and let sit for a couple of days to ferment.
Mix the fermented potato mixture with the flour and salt to form a dough. Add additional water if necessary.
Knead the dough for about 10 minutes, then shape into a loaf and place in a greased loaf tin.
Let the dough rise in a warm place for a couple of hours, or until doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 200 degrees Celsius.
Bake the loaf for about 30 minutes, or until golden and it sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
Let the loaf cool before slicing and serving.
