Recipe review - Potato sciacciata, In The Mix 2, page 222

Sciacciata is described in the book as the Tuscan version of focaccia.

The bread was really easy to make. It has a really soft texture, slightly different to normal focaccia. I did sprinkle some dried chilli flakes on top, along with the rosemary. My DH said it was delicious and looked just like the picture in the book. I'll definitely make it again.

I did think steaming 120 grams of potato was a waste (of time, energy etc), so next time I make it I'll steam more potatoes and make something else as well (Judy suggested potato salad, which is a great idea).

Amazing Katie!  You could always make smashed potatoes from QFEO with the additional potatoes or some gnocchi - that bread looks like it would go great with gnocchi 😀😀😀

Thanks everyone.
Great idea Snappy, I love those smashed potatoes and I love gnocchi (although I've only ever made it once).

Katie,  the Master Baker!!  Looks beautiful.   Is the potato mashed before used ,  or left in lumps.

The potato was steamed in small dice and mixed into the dough like that, not mashed.
