I'm a novice baker so am wondering in the first kneading step, how long should I knead the dough for? I use an KitchenAid mixer - should I use the dough hook? The first time I made this it was perfect, the second time the dough never took enough form to roll out and the third was somewhere in between. I do have a bread machine but what setting do you use? Is there just a knead setting? Yes, you may use the dough hook on your Kitchen Aid and knead for approximately 7-8 minutes. My favorite way to knead when in the test kitchen is to use the bread machine. It does a super job! Use the Dough setting. Enjoy! Elisabeth
