Using a machine to mix and knead dough makes light work of making bread and saves time, especially when mixing dough for several loaves. A heavy-duty tabletop mixer fitted with a dough hook is ideal.
- Sift flour and salt. Put three-quarters of the flour in the mixer bowl. Fit the beater and switch on the machine. Add prepared yeast and remaining warm water.
- Turn off the machine and replace the beater with the dough hook. Add the remaining flour a little at a time, working the machine until a dough forms.
- Continue until the dough comes away from the side of the bowl and forms a ball around the hook. Remove the hook and dough from mixer. Ease the dough off the hook, leaving it as clean as possible, and knead on a floured surface, 2-3 minutes. Shape into a smooth ball.
