dough hook

Mixer's kneading arm

A dough hook is a spiral or C-shaped attachment for a stand mixer, designed to knead bread dough.

It mimics the folding and stretching motion of hand kneading, developing gluten without the labor: Let the dough hook do the work for about ten minutes on medium speed.
