Hi Rich, I'm sorry you found so many gaps in the information! Let me fill you in: You can either mix and knead the dough by hand or in a stand mixer. By hand, mixing and kneading time should take about 10-12 minutes. The dough should be fairly soft and a little sticky, but try to resist the urge to add extra flour, especially when using bread flour rather than all-purpose flour. You want to aim for a soft, supple dough. In the stand mixer, mix all the ingredients together with the dough hook on "stir" for 3 minutes. Still using the dough hook, switch to speed 2 to knead the dough for 3-4 minutes. I hope this helps! Barb
