How do I know when to stop mixing my dough before kneading?Updated 7 months ago

**Step 1: Mix ingredients**


Once all the ingredients are in the bowl, continue to mix until everything is

one rough ball. There's no need to start kneading at this stage.

**Step 2: Rest the dough**

tea towel for 5-10 minutes to help the gluten start developing. After this

time the dough will be easier to handle and you can start kneading the dough.
