Dough expanding periods
Risings is the plural of rising, which as a noun denotes upward movements or uprisings against authority.
Historical risings were rebellions or revolts: the risings of 1745, peasant risings across Europe.
The word also appears in baking contexts—the risings of bread dough as yeast activates.
The loaf needs two risings before baking.
