"Lightly floured surface" means a cutting board or countertop over which 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour have been evenly sprinkled.
"Greased bowl" means a bowl in which about 1 tablespoon shortening, margarine, butter or oil has been spread over the inside. Be sure the bowl is large enough so the dough can double in size.
Let the dough rise as the recipe directs for the best texture and shaped bread. The recipe may say "until double" or "until almost double" in size.
A great place for letting dough rise is an empty oven with a bowl of warm water placed at the bottom. Cover the dough with a lint-free towel or with plastic wrap. Remember to remove the dough before heating the oven for baking! Another draft-free place is your microwave. Place a bowl or measuring cup of hot water in the oven with the dough for added moisture.
If the dough is soft and sticky, lightly dust your hands with flour before shaping the dough.
When shaping dough, be sure your hands are free of soap or lotion, which could affect the taste and texture of the baked product.
If you are rolling out dough, and it continues to "shrink back", cover it and let it rest for a few minutes and then try rolling again.
