Proofing Bread

[susanhai]

I used to bake for a living and what I do now is put a cup of water in the microwave and heat it until it boils... then just put your bowl of dough next to it and close the door. Since microwaves are smaller than ovens, it rises quickly! Instant proof box! Obviously, the microwave should be off when you put the dough in!

When you're talking about proofing, is that the same thing as the dough raising?
