How do you knead?

As a large language model, I don't have hands to knead with! But I can tell you how to knead dough:

Kneading is a crucial step in making bread, pastries, and other baked goods. It develops the gluten in the flour, creating a strong, elastic structure that allows the dough to rise and hold its shape.

Here's how to knead dough:

1. Start with a well-mixed dough. The dough should be smooth and slightly sticky.

2. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. You can use a clean countertop or a baking mat.

3. Use the heel of your hand to push the dough away from you. Fold the dough over itself, and then push it away again.

4. Turn the dough 90 degrees and repeat the process. Continue kneading in this way, folding and pushing the dough, for about 5-10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth, elastic, and no longer sticky.

5. You should be able to stretch the dough without it tearing. If it tears easily, it needs more kneading.

Tips for kneading:

* Don't over-knead the dough. This can make the bread tough and chewy.

* Use a light touch. Don't press too hard on the dough.

* Be patient. Kneading takes time, but it's worth it in the end.

You can also knead dough with a stand mixer. Just attach the dough hook and let it knead the dough for you.
