How to make it
- Heat the oven to 430°F.
- Put potato cubes in baking tray and mix in 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
- Bake potato at for 15 minutes. The potato will only be partially baked. Set aside.
- Mix starter, flours, water, seeds, herbs and the rest of olive oil together until it forms a shaggy ball. Cover and let autolyze 25 minutes.
- Sprinkle salt over the dough and mix with the dough hook on medium speed for 5 minutes.
- Add the potato cubes and mix at a low speed until incorporated (I actually found this easier to do by hand with a bowl scraper).
- Leave the dough in the bowl, covered, for 1 hour, then stretch-and-fold and leave 1 more hour.
- Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Shape the dough into 2 boules and put into proofing baskets or bowls.
- Let stand at room temperature for 4 hours, until risen by about half.
- Heat the oven to 550°F (or as high as the oven will go) with a deep pan of water in the bottom.
- Turn the loaves onto parchment-lined sheets and immediately place in the oven. Mist with water.
- Turn the temperature down to 430°F and bake for 30-40 minutes, rotating the trays halfway through.
