PORTUGUESE SOFRITO BREAD (A B M)

Based on a recipe from Madge Rosenberg's delightful cookbook, The Best Bread Machine Cookbook Ever - Ethnic Breads. She says, "In Portugal, slowly sautéed onions are called sofrito, a deeply flavored beginning, or base, for dishes with rice or potatoes and for stews. The Italian soffritto adds herbs and celery; the Columbian adds annatto seeds. With roasted meat or chicken from any country, pass this Portuguese sofrito bread, or make an open-faced grilled cheese sandwich to remember." The default measurements are for a small 1 pound loaf; I have placed measurements for a large 1 ½ pound loaf in parentheses. I listed 4 hours as the bake time; your bread machine may have a quicker basic bread cycle. NOTE: be sure to use cooked rice! I haven't tried this yet.

PORTUGUESE POTATO BREAD (ABM)

This is an amazing, slightly sweet, awesome bread. I couldn't wait when I made my first two loaves for them to cool. I had to tuck in right away, burning my fingers in the process. It will overgrow your bread machine, so use the dough cycle and bake in two prepared bread pans. I made it with currants and substituted half baking splenda for for half the sugar and it turned out great. Would also be awesome with other dried fruits or a mixture. Makes amazing french toast!

Time 2h10m

Yield 2 Loaves, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup potato, peeled diced uncooked
1 cup boiling water
2 eggs
3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon lemon peel
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
4 1/3 cups bread flour
3 teaspoons active dry yeast
3/4 cup raisins

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan or in the microwave, cook the diced potatoes until tender.
  • Drain but reserve the potato water.
  • Mash potato with a fork.
  • Add enough water to the potato water to make 3/4 cup.
  • Place potato, potato water, eggs, butter lemon peel, sugar, salt, bread flour in the breadpan of your bread machine.
  • Add yeast last.
  • Select dough cycle and press start.
  • Check every now and again to make sure it's not too sticky, or too dry. If it is tacky, add a bit of flour 1 tbs at a time. If it's too dry add water a tbs at a time.
  • When the bread machine beeps to add stuff, toss in your raisins and let finish.
  • When the dough cycle is over, prepare two bread pans. Grease the pans and shake some course cornmeal across the bottom so it doesn't stick.
  • Split dough between the pans and allow to rise for 15-20 minutes.
  • After the last rise, cut three slits into the top of the bread, and brush with one beaten egg (you won't use all of it) to give the crust a nice sheen.
  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, covering the bread with foil after about 15 minutes so the top does not burn (and it will, so watch it).
  • If you have a cooking thermometer, you will know the bread is done with the internal temp comes to 200-210. It is not necessary, but since this bread.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Be sure to knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature for a crispy crust.
  • Serve the bread warm with your favorite toppings.
