Operation
- Preparation:
- Ensure your stand mixer is clean and ready to use.
- Attach the dough hook to the mixer.
- Measuring Ingredients: Measure out your ingredients based on the recipe you’re following. For a basic dough, you’ll typically need flour, water/milk, yeast, salt, and possibly sugar and fats like butter or oil.
- Mixing Dry Ingredients: Add the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt to the mixing bowl. Use the mixer on a low setting to combine these ingredients.
-
- Adding Liquids: With the mixer still on low, gradually add in your water or milk. If your recipe calls for it, add the butter or oil at this stage as well.
- Kneading: Once the ingredients are combined, increase the speed to medium and let the mixer knead the dough. This usually takes about 5-10 minutes. The dough should be elastic and slightly sticky to the touch.
- Proofing: Remove the dough from the mixer, shape it into a ball, and place it in a greased bowl. Cover it with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until it doubles in size, which typically takes about 1-2 hours.
- Punching Down and Shaping: Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Then, you can shape it as required for your recipe.
- Second Rise (if needed): Some recipes may call for a second rise once the dough is shaped. Follow the recipe instructions for this step.
- Baking: Preheat your oven according to the recipe’s instructions and bake your dough until it is golden brown and cooked through.
- Cooling: After baking, place your bread or baked goods on a cooling rack to cool down to room temperature before slicing.
Care and Maintenance
- Remove the mixing bowl and attachments, including the wire whip, dough hook, and flat beater, and put them in a dishwasher if they are dishwasher-safe. If not, soak them in a kitchen sink filled with warm water and dish soap, then gently clean them with a sponge.
