To allow the bread to rise. During the rising process, the yeast produces gases that form bubbles in the dough, making the dough lighter and "fluffier" than it would be otherwise.

When does bread rise with yeast?

After dry yeast is activated with warm liquid and added to the flour and other ingredients it will start to work on the rising process. Normally the dough is kneaded immediately after mixing and then set aside, covered, in a draft free warm area to rise or "proof". Many bread recipes call for 2 times rising. After the first rise it is punched down and formed into loaves or individual rolls and then left to rise again before baking.


Why is yeast added to bread dough and the dough covered with a cloth and set aside a few hours after baking?

The yeast feeds on carbohydrates in the dough and produces Carbon dioxide gas, this is what causes all the little bubbles that are present in bread and what causes it to "rise." It is left for a while in order for this process to happen and is usually allowed to double in size. Bread with no yeast in it is called "unleaven Bread."

What is it when all the ingredients are combined and the dough is kneaded and set aside to rise?

When all the ingredients are combined and the dough is kneaded and set aside to rise, it is referred to as the "proofing" or "fermentation" stage in bread-making. During this process, yeast ferments the sugars in the dough, producing carbon dioxide, which causes the dough to expand and rise. This step is crucial for developing the dough's texture and flavor. After proofing, the dough is usually shaped and allowed to rise again before baking.
