Helpful Hints for a Successful Dough

Step 1: Preparing the yeast

For the dry yeast to be activated it needs to ferment. To do this place warm milk, sugar and the tepid water into a bowl, add dry yeast and mix. Stand in a warm place until mixture starts foaming ie bubbles. This process will take approximately 10 minutes. Be sure not to overheat the milk. As hot temperatures will kill and deactivate the yeast.

Step 2: Preparing the dough

Note: Ensure dough hooks are in place (refer to page 4).

1.Place the dry ingredients into the Mixmaster bowl and position onto the turntable. Turn the speed control switch to speed 1. Begin to gradually add the liquid ingredients to the bowl.

Note: You may find it useful to use a spatula to scrape the dry ingredients from the sides of the bowl.

Safety Tip: Do not attempt to feed the dough into the dough hooks with your hands, spatula or any other utensil while the mixer is plugged into a power outlet or in operation.

2.As the ingredients start to form a ball, scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary with a plastic spatula and remove your dough.

Safety Tip: Do not use the mixer near the edge of a bench or table top where it may fall off.

3.Depending on what recipe you are making, generally you will need to add manual kneading to your dough. Place dough onto a well floured work bench or surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic. This should take approximately 3-5 minutes.

4.After kneading place dough into a large well greased mixing bowl. Place the bowl in a warm, draft-free area and cover with a light cloth until the dough doubles in size.

5.Plunge fist into the centre of the risen dough to punch out excess air. Fold outer edges into the centre and turn dough out onto a lightly floured board for shaping. Place dough into tins for baking, or cut and shape dough for making buns, rolls, etc.

6.Final rising of dough. Cover the dough with a light cloth and place in a warm, draft-free area until doubled in size again. Glaze and bake.
