Preparation
Step 1
Put the flour in a huge bowl.
Step 2
In a big glass measuring cup, put the yeast, sugar, and some water (maybe about 4 oz), to let the yeast ‘proof’. Put it aside for a few minutes until you see it proofed.
Step 3
Empty the proofed yeast into the flour.
Step 4
Slowly add the water and start kneading the dough – put as much water in as needed. Don’t overwork the dough, as it will get tough and not stretch.
Step 5
Once the dough is smooth (you’ll get a workout!), rub the oil outside of the dough.
Step 6
Cover the bowl with a dishtowel and place it somewhere warm (maybe in the oven) for a couple of hours, until it doubles in size.
