Take care not to over-process.
dough tool (if supplied)

Place the dry ingredients in the bowl and add the liquid down the
feed tube whilst the machine is running. Process until a smooth
elastic ball of dough is formed this will take 60 secs.
l
Re-knead by hand only. Re-kneading in the bowl is not
recommended as it may cause the processor to become unstable.
emulsifying tool
