Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups warm water, 100 to 110 degrees F, plus extra as needed
  • 1 (1/4-ounce) packet active dry yeast
  • 5 cups all-purpose flour, plus extra as needed
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons fine sea salt
  • Olive oil, for drizzling

Directions

Put the water in a small bowl. Add the yeast and stir until dissolved.

In a large bowl, whisk the flour and salt together. Add the yeast mixture and stir until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add a little extra water, 1 tablespoon at a time. If the dough is too sticky, add extra flour, 1 tablespoon at a time. Transfer the dough to a floured work surface. With floured hands, knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic, about 10 to 12 minutes. Drizzle the inside of a clean bowl with olive oil. Put the dough in the bowl and cover loosely with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel. Set the bowl in a warm, draft-free place, until the dough has doubled in size, about 2 hours.

Using a fist, deflate the dough in the center and cut it into 3 equal-sized pieces. Form the dough pieces into 3 balls and put into 3 oiled bowls. Cover each bowl loosely with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and let rest for 1 hour. Remove the dough and wrap in plastic. Refrigerate for up to 1 day.

    Easy, simple to follow. Gives a nice light dough that can easily be stretched.

    REALLY??? 5 cups of flour? I wasted 10 cups of flour trying to make this dough. Not to mention my arms want to fall off. I checked other recipes and they call for 3 to 4 cups of flour. First batch didnt rise and the second one did nothing as well.
