Using Dough Hooks
BREAD MAKING INSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT LEAVE YOUR MIXER UNATTENDED
WHEN USING THE DOUGH HOOKS.
Ingredients should be added to the mixing bowl as
they are specified in the recipe.
Combine a small portion of the dry ingredients
with the wet ingredients. Mix on Speed 6. Continue
adding dry ingredients until the mixture becomes
sticky, then turn to Speed 1. Gradually add
remaining dry ingredients.
If there is high humidity in the air, it may be
necessary to add additional flour to the recipe. The
high humidity could also extend the amount of time
necessary for baking.
Guide the mixing bowl with your hands. Use
caution to keep hands out of the way of the dough
hooks.
Do not attempt to scrape the bowl while the mixer
is operating. Stop the mixer and scrape the sides of
the bowl as necessary. Use a rubber or plastic
spatula only.
DO NOT attempt to feed dough into the dough
hooks with your hands, a spatula or any other
utensil while the mixer is plugged into an outlet or
in operation.
If times are specified in the recipe, use them! BE
CAREFUL NOT TO OVERMIX. Overmixing can
cause the mixture to become tough. We suggest that
your total mixing time should be 6 – 8 minutes.
Should an object, such as a spatula, fall into the
bowl while the mixer is operating, turn the mixer
OFF immediately. Then remove the object. Remove
dough hooks and place in sink for easy clean-up.
