Potatoes Viennoise

Six seasoned mashed-potato ovals, lightly flattened, scored twice lengthwise, glazed with egg yolk and baked.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    For the proposed linked No. 91 puree, peel eight medium potatoes. Boil them in about 1.9 L water with 1 tsp salt for the source's 35-minute guide or until tender; drain thoroughly and mash.

  2. Step 2

    Mix in 1/2 tsp salt, the provisionally measured white pepper, a light tsp grated nutmeg, two whole eggs and about 14 g butter for the source's five-minute guide. This use of the complete No. 91 puree is an editorial interpretation of No. 165's cross-reference.

  3. Step 3

    Divide the puree into six equal pieces. Sift a little flour onto a clean work surface and roll each into an oval. Flatten each slightly into the source's Vienna-bread-inspired form; cut two lengthwise incisions into each upper surface without cutting through.

  4. Step 4

    Lightly butter a baking sheet and arrange the six ovals with room between them. Beat one egg yolk lightly and brush the surfaces.

  5. Step 5

    Bake in a preheated very brisk oven for the printed 12-minute guide, extending as needed for a golden surface and a measured 74°C in the egg-bound centres and a visibly cooked, set yolk glaze; a thin glaze cannot be measured independently. Transfer to a warm dish and serve hot.
