Dr Alexander Hunter (1729 - 1809) touted his recipe for potato bread as being the best bread to make toast and butter. Elizabeth David agreed with Dr Hunter and in English Bread and Yeast Cookery book (1977) declares it to be one of her favourites.
Ooo interesting. Sadly, I only have a new potato glut this year (no space for main crops). Do you think this bread would be a gluey mess with new potatoes?

Lovely post, Sam. I'd forgotten about chewy potato bread toast! And I'd think that any potato you'd think about mashing woud be suitable....
