  • 1 tsp sugar

  2. In a food processor or mixer, with a dough hook attachment, (or a large bowl if you don’t have one) add the flour, salt, olive oil and mix briefly. Gradually add the (now frothy) yeast mixture while mixing until you achieve a dough that holds together and does not stick to the side. Run the food processor/mixer for several minutes to mechanically knead the dough. (If mixing by hand, do this on a lightly floured surface and knead for 10 minutes.)
