The type of bread you are making may vary the shaping process. For regular bread loaves: Lightly flour the work surface; shape the dough into a smooth ball.
Use a rolling pin to form a rectangle.
Beginning at the short end of the rectangle, roll the dough tightly to make a loaf shape.
Pinch the seam and ends of the rolled dough with your fingers to seal it closed. Place dough, seam side down, in greased baking pan.
If you are using a recipe that requires a distinctive shape, follow these same basic instructions but shape accordingly.
