– bread flour – sugar – salt – instant yeast
Prep the Yeast: In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar in the warm water. Sprinkle the yeast on top and let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes frothy.
Mix the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine the bread flour and salt. Once the yeast mixture is ready, pour it into the flour mixture. Stir until a shaggy dough forms.
Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Grease the Bowl: After kneading, lightly grease a clean bowl with olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl, turning it to coat all sides with the oil.
