Mixing tips
Mixing time
Your KitchenAid Stand Mixer will mix
faster and more thoroughly than most
otherelectricmixers.Therefore,the
mixing time in most recipes must be
adjustedtoavoidoverbeating.
Tohelpdeterminetheidealmixingtime,
observe the batter or dough and mix only
until it has the desired appearance described
inyourrecipe,suchas“smoothandcreamy.”
Toselectthebestmixingspeeds,usethe
“Speed control guide” section.
Adding Ingredients
The standard procedure to follow when
mixingmostbatters,especiallycakeand
cookiebatters,istoadd:
1/3 dry ingredients
1/2 liquid ingredients
1/3 dry ingredients
1/2 liquid ingredients
1/3 dry ingredients
Use Speed 1 until ingredients have been
blended. Then gradually increase to desired
speed.
Always add ingredients as close to side of
bowlaspossible,notdirectlyintomoving
beater. The pouring shield can be used to
simplify adding ingredients.
NOTE: If ingredients in very bottom of
bowlarenotthoroughlymixed,thebeater
is not far enough into the bowl. See the
“Beater to bowl clearance” section.
Cake Mixes
Whenpreparingpackagedcakemixes,use
Speed 4 for medium speed and Speed 6
forhighspeed.Forbestresults,mixfor
thetimestatedonthepackagedirections.
Adding Nuts, Raisins, or Candied Fruits
Solid materials should be folded in the last
few seconds of mixing on Speed 1. The
battershouldbethickenoughtokeepthe
fruitornutsfromsinkingtothebottomof
thepanduringbaking.Stickyfruitsshould
bedustedwithourforbetterdistribution
in the batter.
Liquid Mixtures
Mixtures containing large amounts of liquid
ingredients should be mixed at lower speeds
to avoid splashing. Increase speed only after
mixturehasthickened.
Kneading Yeast Doughs
ALWAYSusethedoughhooktomixand
kneadyeastdoughs.UseSpeed2tomix
orkneadyeastdoughs.Useofanyother
speed creates high potential for unit failure.
