Como fazer Paska Easter Bread

Peel and chop 1 large russet potato. Boil in water until tender (about 15-20 minutes). Drain, reserving ¾ cup of the potato water.
Mash the cooked potato.
In a large bowl, soften the yeast in the reserved ¾ cup warm potato water for 10 minutes.
Add 1 cup of flour to the yeast mixture and stir to form a soft sponge. Cover and let rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.
While the sponge is rising, warm the milk and pour it over 2 cups of flour in a separate bowl. Beat until smooth. Allow to cool slightly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and 1 cup of sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the warm flour mixture to the egg yolk mixture and mix well.
In a clean bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the egg whites, then the yeast sponge, into the egg yolk mixture.
Add the softened margarine, salt, the remaining ½ cup sugar, and the mashed potato to the dough.
Gradually add enough flour (6-7 cups total) to form a medium-soft dough.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk (about 1-1.5 hours).
Shape the dough into loaves (or one large loaf) and place them in greased loaf pans.
Cover and let rise again until almost doubled (about 30-45 minutes).
Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 45-60 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Be careful not to overbake.
Let the bread cool completely on a wire rack before making and applying the icing.
Make a simple icing by gradually adding milk to powdered sugar until you reach desired consistency. Ice the completely cooled bread.
