| 1. Mix the yeast, sugar and water in a small bowl. Let proof until bubbles begin to form. | 2. In large bowl, stir together remaining dry ingredients. | 3. Add the yeast mix and one tablespoon of oil to the dry ingredients and combine. | 4. When dough has pulled together, turn out onto lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic. | 5. If you are using a stand mixer, proof the yeast mixture in the bowl and add the mixed dry ingredients to the bowl. | 6. Oil a large bowl, place dough in bowl and turn to coat with oil. | 7. Cover with damp cloth and let rise in warm place 25 minutes. | 8. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. | 9. Punch dough down, place in 10" cast iron skillet. Drizzle dough with remaining oil. Alternatively, place dough on a greased baking sheet and pat dough into 1/2-inch thick rectangle (doesn't have to be perfect). | 10. Using your fingers, make indentations in the dough about 1/2-inch apart, then prick dough with fork. | 11. Allow dough to rise another half hour. | 12. Optional: lightly sprinkle dough with kosher or sea salt. | 13. Bake for 13-15 minutes on a baking sheet, or 22-30 minutes if you are using cast iron. It should be a deep golden brown; use a wooden skewer or toothpick to test doneness. | 14. Notes: You may use less oil in the baking dish, I like the richness the olive oil gives the bread. A single batch fits the 10" skillet perfectly; the bread should rise at least 3/4" of the way to the rim. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
