Directions
- Place the warm water, yeast, sugar, and olive oil in a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
- Add the flour and salt to the water mixture. Use a wooden spoon to mix until all the flour is hydrated and a ragged dough forms. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead until the dough is very smooth and elastic, 8-10 minutes.
- Form the dough into a ball and place it in a lightly oiled mixing bowl. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap, and set in a warm place to rest. Allow the dough to rise for 2 hours, or until doubled in volume.

Pretty good. It was a fairly simple recipe. The cooking took a little bit of time, I doubled the recipe.
