Tosefta Pesachim
Dough [lodged] in the cracks of the kneading bowl (Pes. 3:2): [If] it was done (i.e., lodged in the cracks) in order to strengthen [the trough], it does not interpose [and is considered to be part of the trough], and if not, it does interpose [and must be removed]. If there is an olive's-bulk in one place: In either case (i.e., whether it interposes or does not interpose), he must remove it [from his premises before Passover]. [If] there was half an olive's-bulk here and half an olive's-bulk there, and there was [dough] like a rope in the middle [connecting the two halves]: If he takes out all three of them (i.e., the two half-olive-bulks and the connecting dough) as one, behold, he needs to remove them, and if not (i.e., if he lifts them out one by one), there is no need to remove [them].

Tosefta Pesachim
A woman who collects water that was used by a baker in order to knead [dough] with it for [use] after the Festival, behold, these (i.e., the goods for which she used the dough) are forbidden. Furthermore, women are accustomed to not kneading [dough] after a Festival with water that was heated during the Festival. § [Regarding the question of whether challah (i.e., dough separated for the Kohanim) may be separated during Passover from dough that became impure, and set aside until after Passover, even though it may ferment during Passover, see Pes. 3:3,] Rabbi Eliezer said to Rabbi Yehoshua, how can you possibly say that challah may be separated in a state of impurity during the Festival [and left to ferment], when it is written saying (Ex. 12:19), "leaven may not be found in your houses." Rabbi Yehoshua said to him, behold, [on the seventh day of Passover,] "only that which which may be eaten by every person [may be made by you]" (Ex. 12:16). Rabbi Eliezer said to him, still, the matter hangs in the balance -- who can overbalance it (i.e., what proof can either side bring to prevail in the dispute)? Rabbi Yehoshua said, I will overbalance it, for since what I perform through my own actions (lit., "with my hands") can cause me to violate a negative prohibition, thus [with respect to] that which I leave alone in the state that I found it [without interfering], how can I violate a negative commandment if it was not through my actions?

Tosefta Pesachim
[If] the fourteenth [of Nissan] falls on the Sabbath, we remove everything [containing chametz] before the Sabbath begins, and bake matzah for it (i.e., for Passover) up until Sabbath Eve. Pure and impure Terumah: We remove them before Sabbath begins, the words of Rabbi Meir. And the Sages say, [they are removed] at their [customary] time. Pure and impure Terumah are removed on the Sabbath. Said Rabbi Elazer bar Rabbi Tzaddok, Terumah [is removed] before the Sabbath since few eat it, and chullin on the Sabbath since many eat it. Said Rabbi Elazer bar Rabbi Tzaddok, one time we were sitting before Rabban Gamaliel in the study hall in Lod [during a year when Passover fell on the Sabbath, see Pes. 49a:2] and in came Zunin, the deputy [of Rabban Gamaliel], and he said, "The time has come to remove the chametz!" My father and I want to the house of Rabban Gamaliel and we removed the chametz [even though it was the Sabbath].
