How to knead pizza or bread dough in my Philips Pasta Maker
Kneading dough:
- Switch on the pasta maker. When you have an auto-weighing pasta maker, select either the program for plain pasta, egg or flavoured pasta (as you're not following the liquid calculation, it doesn't matter which program you choose).
- Put all dry ingredients in the mixing chamber and close the lid.
- Start the kneading by pressing the start button.
- Pour the liquid ingredients in slowly alongside the slots on the lid. Note: for auto-weighing appliances, do not follow the calculated amount of water on the display, but stick to your recipe.
- Let the pasta maker knead the dough for 3:00 minutes as indicated on the display. When the timer is at 00:00, stop the pasta maker by pressing the Start/Pause button or On/Off.
- Unplug the appliance and remove the dough from the mixing chamber. Let the dough rise and proceed as usual.
Note:
- Do not leave the pasta maker unattended while kneading and do not use the extrusion function.
- Always unplug the appliance before reaching into the mixing chamber.
