How to Make It

1. Dissolve yeast in warm water with a teaspoon of sugar; let stand until frothy.

5. Sprinkle a small amount of flour onto counter and let dough rest.
6. Meanwhile, grease a large bowl.

9. Punch down.
10. Turn out onto a floured board.
11. Divide into portions for shaping; let rest 10 minutes.
