GET THE RECIPE:
4 cups flour
4 oz sweet white potato
12 oz milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter
2-1/4 tsp dry yeast
1 tsp anise
1 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp cinnamon
1-1/2 tsp salt
zest from one lemon
1 tbsp butter for brushing on after bread is cooked.

DIRECTIONS:
Peel dice and cook a 1/2 a cup of sweet potato for about 15 minutes. Then mashed potatoes and allow them cool down for about 10 minutes.

Warm up 12 ounces of milk with a pinch of sugar to about 110°F (43°C) stir in the dry yeast. And allow the yeast to rehydrate for about 10 minutes.

Mix about 2 tablespoons of the milk yeast mixture and the 1/4 cup of butter into the mashed potatoes. Mix with a fork or a whisk until it's a smooth paste. Add in the rest of the milk/yeast mixture.

Combine all the ingredients with 4 cups of flour. After you combine the flour with all the ingredients allow her to rest for 5 to 30 minutes.

Next need the dough for about five minutes.

Allow the dough to bulk proof in a warm place - until double in size. If the temperature is between 65 F and 75 F it may take about four hours. If the temperature is between 75- 85°F it should take between 2 to 3 hours.

After the bolt proofing, divide the dough into equal portions. Shape the bread into a large bowl shape. Cover and allow to proof for an additional 1 to 3 hours.

Place the dough on a cookie sheet.


Bake at 400 F (205 c) for 35-40 minutes.
(or until the internal temperature is between 190 and 200°F) {88°C}

Allow the bread to cool for about 10 minutes then brush with melted butter.
