Answer

KNEAD

The word KNEAD means to work and press dough or similar substances with the hands, typically in a folding and stretching motion. This action develops gluten in bread dough, giving it its elastic texture. The word comes from Old English and has been used in baking contexts for centuries. Interestingly, it also applies to massage, where muscles are pressed and worked in a similar fashion.

Strategy Tip

Words starting with KN can be tricky because the K is silent when pronounced. If you are stuck and have ruled out common starting consonants, consider trying less obvious letter combinations like KN or GN.
