PORTUGUESE SWEET BREAD
2 pkg active dry yeast
1/2 cup warm potato water
3 tbsp and 1 3/4 cups sugar, divided use
1 cup mashed potatoes
1/8 tsp ground ginger
1/2 cup milk
2 tsp salt
6 eggs
1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
8 to 10 cups flour, divided use
Dissolve yeast in potato water. Stir in the 3 tablespoons sugar, potatoes and ginger. Cover; let rise until doubled.
Scald milk; add salt and cool to lukewarm.
In small bowl of electric mixer, beat eggs; gradually beat in the remaining 1 3/4 cups sugar. Stir into yeast mixture. Add butter and mix well. Stir in 2 cups of the flour, then milk. Add 2 more cups of the flour; beat 5 minutes. Stir in enough remaining flour to make a stiff dough.
Place on lightly floured board and knead in remaining flour until dough is smooth and elastic, about 8 to 10 minutes. Place in greased bowl, turning in grease top. Cover; let rise until doubled.
TO SHAPE AND BAKE THE LOAVES:
Grease four 9x5x3-inch loaf pans.
On a lightly floured board, divide dough into fourths. Shape each fourth into a loaf; place in prepared pans. Cover; let rise until doubled.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
Bake at 325 degrees F for 45 minutes or until done.
