TWO potato mm is LATEST ECONOMY Eoi'ed Potatoes Mixed With Flour Makes a Most Nutritious Product JUST AS GOOD AS THE ORDINARY BREAD Here is a Way For Farmers to Cut the Cost of Flour. Excellent bread can be made by using* 3 pounds of boiled ar.tl mashe?i potato and 2 1-4 pounds of good biead flour, according to the baking 5-1 ccialist of the department. The bread so compounded has a rich, brown c ast and t- nder and elastic crumb. It has an appetizing odor a no a very agroeab'e taste, wnich is pteforred by many to that of bread r.ade wholly from fiour. When made according to the directions giv c below, potato bread certains n.ore mineral matter, fiber, ami mois| ture, but otherwise in composition and nutritive value is practically the same as ordinary bread. Its higher moisture content helps to keep it fresh several days longer than ordinary bread. In localities where there is a surplus o: potatoes or where thoy are very cheap, potato bread costs less to make than allfkur bread, and, in general, is a good way in which to utilize cull potatoes in a palatable food product. Even, however, where the relat've market prices of potatoes and flour arc such that there is no economy in substituting potato for flour, the individual flavor and keeping quality of potato bread mrke it desirable as a variant in the family diet. Potato bread lias long beer, k -.own to housekeepers, but recently 11:ere lias been a revival of interest in the subject. Such bread is made l\\ mixing a larger or smaller amount of cooked and mashed potoato with the flour, the recipes housekeepers use varying considerably. Mere recently other ways of using potatoes in bread making have been devised, and the European bread n w referred to as '"potato bread" is very commonly made with a so-calieb "potato flour" prepared from potatoes, using about 10 parts of this with 90 parts of wheat four or a mixture of rye and wheat flours. * As potato flour and dried potato flakes are not accsesible to the American housewife, the specialists conducted a series of successful experiments in the use of boiled potatoes with flour, undertaken to find od 1 the maximum amount of potato which can be used and yield a presentable loaf and to provide the housekeeper with carefully tested and standardized recipes which will help her to avoid failures and to secure uniformly good results in making such bread. It was found that a mixture of boiled potatoes and wheat flour in the proportions given in the accompanying recipes gave a very desirable loaf, a trifle smaller than that made from all flour, but wholesome and nutritious. Figured to a basis of equal moisture content, the boiled potato would represent 25 per cent and the flour 75 percent of the mixla re. The following method for making potato bread, worked out in the baking laboratory, are recommended: ; Potato Bread?Straight Dough I Method. For four 1-pound loaves, the following ingredients are required: 2 pounds of bailed and peeled potatoes. 2 1-4 pounds good bread flour. 3 level tablcspoonfuls of sugar. 1 1-2 level tablespoonfuls of salt. 2 cakes of compressed yeast.
