Directions
Step 1
Basically you just bloom the yeast with water and sugar, add the oil, flour and salt and mix it up. The dough is somewhat wet so slap and folds will get it into a ball.

300 g Water (110-115°F)
1 tbsp Sugar
400 g Bread Flour
25 g Extra Virgin Olive OIl
9 g Salt
Step 2
Cover and let it double in size, punch it down and put into a well oiled baking dish and spread it out. If you want to just let it rise for another 45-60 minutes at this point - that works. But, letting it rise overnight or longer will develop better flavor.

Step 3
Once ready to bake, hit it with a couple glugs of olive oiled give it the classic dimples. Adding salt to the top is also a good thing to do. Either flakey salt or what I did was make a brine of 40g water and 6g salt.

Step 4
Mix until the salt dissolves and pour it on top for a thorough seasoning on the top. Bake at 450°F for 20-30 minutes depending on you oven and how dark you like it. Cheers!
