Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Wooden spoon or spatula
  • Clean, flat surface for kneading
  • Baking sheet
  • Plastic wrap or a kitchen towel
  • Wire rack for cooling

Ingredients

  • 1 Package active dry yeast
  • 1 ½ tbsp sugar
  • 1 ¼ cups warm water
  • 1 tsp Sicilian sea salt
  • 2 ½ cups 00 flour ¼ cup extra for dusting
  • 2 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Instructions

  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, combine the warm water, active dry yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it’s frothy
  • In a separate large bowl, mix the 00 flour and Sicilian Sea salt. Make a well in the center
  • Pour the yeast mixture into the well of the dry ingredients. Stir with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms
  • Transfer the dough to a floured surface. Sprinkle some flour on top and knead the dough for about 3-5 minutes, adding flour as needed until it reaches a smooth, slightly tacky consistency
  • Lightly coat a bowl with 1 tsp of olive oil. Place the dough ball in the bowl, turning it to coat with oil. Cover it with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 35-45 minutes, or until doubled in size
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with 1 tbsp of olive oil
  • Once risen, gently remove the dough from the bowl and shape it as desired. Place it on the greased baking sheet
  • Brush the top with remaining olive oil, cover with plastic wrap, and let it rise for another 45 minutes to 1 hour until doubled again
  • Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until golden brown. The internal temperature should reach about 190°F (88°C)
  • Remove from the oven and let it cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before slicing

Tips

  • If your dough feels too sticky, sprinkle a little more flour while kneading.
  • For extra flavor, consider adding herbs or garlic to the dough!
