- 1½ teaspoons active dry yeast

- 1⅛ teaspoons ground turmeric
- 2¼ tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1¾ teaspoons salt
Mashed Idaho® Potato Filling
- 2 small Idaho® russet potatoes, peeled, cubed, cooked
- 4 roasted garlic cloves, julienned
- ½ teaspoon basil chiffonade
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- ⅞ teaspoon salt
- 2½ teaspoons Calabrian chilies in oil, sliced into rings
- 2½ teaspoons Parmesan cheese brunoise

Tomato Chutney
- 1½ cups heirloom cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 3 teaspoons fresh ginger, chopped
- ½ teaspoon basil chiffonade
- ½ teaspoon mustard seeds (black or yellow), toasted
- ¼ cup Thai sweet chili sauce
- ½ teaspoon Serrano chile, sliced
Directions:
For the Bialy Dough
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cooking water, riced potatoes, egg, and butter.
- Attach the dough hook and add the flour, yeast, sugar, and turmeric.
- Mix on low speed for 2 minutes.
- Turn off the mixer, scrape down the sides.
- Add the oil and salt.
- Mix on low speed for an additional 8 minutes.
- Remove dough from mixer and place in a covered container to bench proof at about 70°F for 2 hours, or until dough approximately doubles in size.
For the Mashed Idaho® Potato Filling
- Rice the potatoes into a bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients and gently mix to incorporate.
- Store refrigerated until ready to assemble the bialys.
For the Tomato Chutney
- Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and gently stir to incorporate.
- Store refrigerated until serving.
Assemble
- Once the dough has doubled, deflate it and divide it into 12-14 portions.
- Proof the 12-14 portions until doubled in size.
- On a floured surface, deflate each dough ball's center and gently pull on the sides like shaping a pizza with a ½˝ perimeter crust.
- Place about 2 tablespoons of the potato filling in the center of each dough disc and press out the mashed potatoes to the crust's edges (leaving the ½˝ perimeter).
Bake
- Bake on a pizza stone in a 500°F oven for 6-8 minutes, or until the crust has risen all around and is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and serve with the tomato chutney.
