Beaters, Whips, Dough Hooks, Pastry Knives
. . . and How to Use Them
This section illustrates and names the various mixer agitators and discusses
their applications. General information on how to get the best results from your
Hobart mixer is also provided. As is always the case with the art of cooking, your
best creations are achieved by carefully proving your methods and formulas
and evaluating the results.
The discussions on mixer performance and agitator uses are similar for planetary
action mixers regardless of size. That is not to say that the same mix times will
apply. This handbook offers suggestions and guidelines only. The cooking is
up to you.
Attachments and accessories and their uses are discussed in the last section
of the handbook.
CLEANING NEW MIXER BOWLS AND ACCESSORIES
Before using the fi rst time, thoroughly wash new mixer bowls and agitators
(beaters, whips, dough hooks and pastry knives). Wash in hot water and a
mild detergent solution, rinse with either a mild soda or vinegar solution, and
thoroughly rinse with clear water. Also follow this cleaning procedure for bowls
and agitators before whipping egg whites or whole eggs.
