This is my first year participating in the challenge after lurking for the past two years. To come up with my redo bake, I looked through some of the cookbooks that I have bought in recent months. Because I am making tomato soup (with America’s Test Kitchen’s Creamless Creamy Tomato Soup recipe; non-paywalled recipe here) and grilled cheese sandwiches tonight for dinner, I decided some simple homemade bread would be great for the sandwiches.
For this bake, I halved the recipe and made a single loaf, as myself and my family are typically slow to get through bread and I did not want an extra loaf stuffed in the freezer.
Ultimately, I think I slightly under proofed it before putting it in the oven. I was expecting more of a rise in the oven so the slices are much too short for sandwiches (at about 2 1/2” tall). The crumb is still quite nice so I imagine it will be used up for french toast or regular toast.

Recipe from A Baker’s Tour by Nick Malgieri (pages 34 and 35). Weights and metric measurements/temperatures were added by me.
England: Potato Loaf Bread
Notes
This is an adaptation of a recipe in Elizabeth David’s brilliant English Bread and Yeast Cookery (Viking, 1977). The addition of potato makes the bread more moist and flavorful, and the potato flavor really comes through when the bread is toasted. The potato needs to be warm when added to the other ingredients, so start cooking the potato and then get the other ingredients ready. By the time you are ready to use the potato, it will probably be just right and you may proceed with the recipe. To cook the potato microwave or boil it; then peel, mash, and measure it.
