The appliance also has a pulse setting (P) which can be used for shorter
intervals.
First pour all the liquid ingredients into the bowl and then add the dry
ingredients. Always remain in the vicinity of the kithcen machine during use.
Always add ingredients as close to the sides of the bowl as possible, not
directly into the rotating accessory.
When preparing cake mixes, use speed 2 for low speed, speed 4 for medium
speed and 6-8 for high speed. To achieve the best results, the mixture should
be mixed for the time specified on the pack.
Mixtures containing a lot of liquid should be blended at low speed. Do not
increase the speed until the mixture has thickened.
For heavy doughs, select medium speed. Switch the kithcen machine off every
now and then in order to scrape the ingredients down from the sides of the
bowl using a dough scraper.
Shortcrust pastry is one of the heaviest dough types, but it may make it easier
to mix this type of dough if you:
−
Add butter or margarine at room temperature
−
Add the ingredients one at a time and mix well between each ingredient
−
Add 100 ml flour at a time.
If the machine struggles to stir the dough, increase the speed (maximum speed
2).
If something goes wrong, and something gets stuck in the accessory or the
motor stops. Turn off the appliance and unplug it. Deal with the problem or
reduce the quantity of mixture in the bowl. Leave the motor to cool down for 5
minutes before restarting the kithcen machine.
The whisk is used for whisking egg whites, cream and so on. Do not use the
whisk to mix thick mixtures such as cookie dough or mashed potatoes.
