Potato Bread

It's been a long time since I made a potato bread. Combined with rye sourdough, (whole grain) wheat poolish and an altus (stale bread) soaker this bread develops a rich flavor. Not very complicated to make also.

Alter Fritz

Allegedly German Emperor Friedrich II (called "der alte Fritz") brought the potato to Germany. Since this bread is made with potatoes Ketex called it "Alter Fritz". My first use of "Mohnheim Style Sourdough", which is a sourdough with a little bit of salt added. Rye sourdough and a lot of wheat flour, still not too time consuming as there is no "fold and stretch" step.
