Courses: Breads

Recipe Ingredients

3/4 cup 177mlWarm water
1   Yeast
1 teaspoon 5mlKosher salt
1 tablespoon 15mlExtra-virgin olive oil
3 cups 187g / 6.6ozAll-purpose flour

Recipe Instructions

Combine the water, and yeast in a large bowl and stir until dissolved. Add the salt and the olive oil and mix thoroughly. Add 1 cup of the flour and mix with a wooden spoon to make a loose batter. Add 2 more cups of the flour and stir with the spoon for 2 to 3 minutes to incorporate as much flour as possible.

Bring the dough together by hand and turn out onto a floured board or marble surface. Knead for 6 to 8 minutes, until you have a smooth, firm dough. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl and cover with a towel. Set aside to rise in the warmest part of the kitchen for 45 minutes.

After 45 minutes, cut the risen dough into 2 equal pieces and knead each portion into a round. Cover again and let rise for 15 minutes. The dough is now ready to be used.

This recipe yields 2 loaves.
