   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
      3/4           cup  Warm Water -- 110F
   2 1/4            tsp  Instant Yeast
   8                 oz  Yam Puree -- Note*
   2               Tbsp  Extra Virgin Olive Oil
   3               cups  Artisan Bread Flour -- (to 4C)
   2                tsp  Salt
   1 1/2            tsp  minced fresh Rosemary
   1 1/2            tsp  minced fresh Sage
      1/2           tsp  Whole Coriander Seeds -- crushed

Yam or sweet potato puree impart a beautiful warm orange hue to this 
bread.  Fresh herbs make this bread more than the standard accompaniment.

Note* To make yam puree, peel yam and cut into 1" cubes. Place in a 
baking dish, add 1/4 cup water, cover with foil or a lid, and bake at 
350F until soft. Drain off water, let cool, then puree in a blender 
or food processor. Weigh out 8 oz to use in recipe.

PREP: 50 - 60 minutes
COOK: 1:45
YIELDS: one 10" boule

Combine warm water and yeast in a large mixing bowl; allow to sit for 
about 5 minutes while the yeast activates.

Add yam puree, olive oil, 3 cups of flour, and salt to the yeast 
mixture. Mix until a shaggy dough forms, about 2 minutes. Add 
additional flour, if needed.

If using a dough hook, mix until a smooth dough forms, about 6 - 7 
minutes. If preparing by hand, knead on a floured work surface until 
a smooth dough forms, 10 - 12 minutes. Add herbs and coriander and 
mix or knead to evenly distribute them.

Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turn dough over once to coat all 
sides then cover and allow to rise in a warm place until doubled in 
size, about 1 hour.

Once dough has doubled in size, turn out onto a lightly floured work 
surface. Taking care to not lose too much of the air in the dough, 
gently shape the dough into a square. Gather the four corners 
together into the center and pinch together to seal. Turn the sealed 
end to the bottom and gently roll and shape the dough into a tight 
ball. Transfer the dough to a baking sheet, cover, and let rise in a 
warm place until doubled in size, about 45 minutes. While dough is 
rising, preheat oven to 375F.

When dough has doubled in size, gently score the top with a sharp 
knife if desired, and bake until golden brown and an interior 
temperature of 210F has been reach, about 1 hour. Let cool at least 
20 minutes before serving.
