What is the dough blade on a food processor?

When the dough climbs up the hook, that is typically an indication that the kneading is complete. A sticky dough will tend to climb the dough hook and even climb over the collar of the dough hook. Dough that contains eggs tends to be stickier and climb the hook more easily.
