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.
