  • 2 cups warm water
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 5 - 6 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • Sprinkle yeast into 1 cup of warm water and sugar; stir to dissolve. Set aside and let the yeast activate.
  • Mix 2 cups of flour with 1 cup of warm water.
  • Add the yeast water to the mix.
  • Stir in the remaining flour.
  • Turn onto a lightly floured table and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
