[Cz-L] add recipe: tocz

This is probably a true Bukowina dish, after all the "cz" in tocz
is just like the "cz" in Czernowitz. Anyhow, I have never eaten it,
except at the home of Bukowiner. It is great with meat and gravy,
but also wonderful with sour cream and cottage cheese (Topfen Kaese)

Tocz

To serve 6-8

1 pkg. dry yeast
1/2 cup water
1 cup flour
1/2 tsp sugar
2 lb (1kg.) potatoes
4 large eggs
1tsp salt
black pepper to taste
2tbsp butter or oil

Stir yeast into water, add sugar and 1/4 cup of the flour.
Mix well and let rise in a warm place till doubled in size.
Peel and grate potatoes coarsely, add eggs and mix well.
Add risen yeast, the remainder of the flour, the salt and pepper.
Mix well, cover with a towel and let rise until doubled in size.
Mix again lightly, then pour into a greased metal 9"x9" pan.
Bake on the middle rack of the oven, at 400 F (200 C) for about 40 minutes,
Spread 1 tbsp butter over the top, return to oven, but to the upper rack
and bake for another 5-10 minutes.

Guten Appetit
