Guest guest Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 These sound divine and I'll be doing them soon but please save your potato water! Throw it in the freezer or something. It makes the most wonderful bread. Something about using potato water in yeast breads makes them even better! I'll be posting a potato bread recipe soon, and a potato starter recipe.
