What is the best way to knead bread?

Kneading Bread

To make a standard yeast bread, gather the well-mixed dough on your countertop and keep some extra flour handy. With the heel of your hand, push the dough into the countertop away from you and fold it back over itself toward you, adding a bit more flour as needed. Turn sideways and repeat the process. Continue doing this until the dough is smooth and elastic, usually 10 to 15 minutes. At this point the dough should spring back if you poke it with your finger. Proceed with your recipe instructions.
