If the bread dough is too dry before the first rising, you can try adding a bit more liquid (what ever kind the recipe calls for) to the dough. You can also add a bit more fat (melted shortening, butter or oil) to the liquid before adding it to the dough. Then finish the kneading, rising and baking process as the recipe instructs.
If bread is too dry after it's baked, it won't taste good and may even be difficult to eat being too hard to swallow. But don't throw it out! You can still use it for making other things, such as bread crumbs and croutons (seasoned or plain), or for making bread pudding.

Why should you allow pie dough to rest after mixing it?
When mixing a bread dough, a recipe will often instruct you to allow the dough to rest after mixing and before kneading. The reason for allowing the dough to rest is that adding too much flour to the dough will make the bread dry and heavy, so allowing your bread dough to rest before kneading gives the dough time to absorb water and fully hydrate. Recipes give an amount of flour but, because flour varies in the amount of moisture it can absorb, the actual amount of flour used will vary.While the resting time is important in all breads, it's especially important when using whole grain flours. Whole grains will absorb more water than white flour but they also take longer to absorb water. If you mix and knead the dough quickly, often too much flour will be added and the resulting bread will be dry and crumbly. By giving the flour some added time to hydrate, you will likely add less flour and result in a more successful bread.
