Directions
-
Dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes.
-
Add milk, 3 tablespoons of butter, salt, cayenne pepper, and 2 1/2 cups of flour; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
-
Stir in the finely shredded potatoes and enough of the remaining flour to form a soft dough.
-
Turn the dough onto a floured board and knead until smooth and elastic, noting that it will feel slightly sticky.
-
Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top, cover, and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled, about 1 hour.
-
Punch the dough down and pat it into a 1/2-inch thick rectangle.
-
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the dough.
-
Fold the dough over the cheese and knead gently to incorporate the cheese into the dough.
-
Shape the dough into two round loaves and place them in greased 9-inch round baking pans.
-
Cover and let rise again until doubled, about 45 minutes.
-
Cut an "X" on top of each loaf and brush with the remaining melted butter.
-
Bake at 400&# 194;°F (204ðC) for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown.
-
Remove from pans and let cool on wire racks.
