SOUR CREAM & CHIVE POTATO BREAD



Sour Cream & Chive Potato Bread image

There's just nothing like potato to give bread a soft, moist, creamy texture; the starch in the potato attracts and holds liquid, meaning breads baked with potato will not only be soft and moist initially, but will stay that way longer. From King Arthur Flour.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 3h40m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 ounces sour cream (light is OK, nonfat is a poor option)
1/2 cup leftover mashed potatoes
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons sugar
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons instant yeast
1/4-1/2 cup finely chopped chives

Steps:

  • Combine all of the ingredients and mix till cohesive. Knead the dough, by hand or mixer, till it's smooth, about 5 to 10 minutes, adding water or flour if needed. The dough will become fairly elastic, though still somewhat stiff. Place the kneaded dough in a greased bowl or dough-rising bucket, cover it, and allow it to rise for 60 to 90 minutes, until it's quite puffy (though not necessarily doubled in bulk.).
  • Shape the dough into an 8-inch log, and place it in a lightly greased 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan. Cover the pan with a proof cover or lightly greased plastic wrap, and allow the loaf to rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until it's crowned about 1 inch over the rim of the pan.
  • For sandwich rolls, divide the dough into six pieces, each about 4 1/2 ounces in weight. Roll each piece into a smooth ball, then flatten the balls (using your fingers and/or a rolling pin) till they're about 4 inches in diameter. Place them on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet, about 1 inch apart, and cover them with a proof cover or lightly greased plastic wrap. Allow the rolls to rise for 45 minutes to 1 hour (or longer, depending on the temperature of your kitchen), till they're noticeably puffy, though probably not doubled in bulk.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated 350°F oven for about 40 minutes; an instant read thermometer inserted into the center will read about 190°F Bake the rolls in a preheated 350°F oven for 22 to 27 minutes, or until they're a light golden brown. Remove the bread or rolls from the oven, and brush with melted butter, if desired, for a soft, flavorful crust. Transfer to a rack to cool.

Tips:

- Be sure to use cold butter for the dough. This will help to create a flaky crust. - Don't overwork the dough. Overworking the dough will make it tough. - Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to make the dough easier to work with. - If you don't have a pastry blender, you can use two forks to cut the butter into the flour. - You can use a food processor to make the dough. Just be careful not to overprocess it. - If the dough is too sticky, add more flour. If the dough is too dry, add more water. - Bake the bread until it is golden brown and the center is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Sour cream chive bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover sour cream, and it is a delicious addition to any meal. This bread is also a great gift for friends and family.
