Ingredients

• 1 Whole Envelope Active Dry Yeast
• 2 Tablespoons Sugar
• 2 Cups Bread Flour
• 3/4 Cup Warm Water
• 1/2 Teaspoon Fine Salt

Directions

1. In a large bowl, whisk the yeast and sugar with a quarter of the flour.
2. Stir in the warm water and let stand until slightly foamy, about 5 minutes.
3. Add salt and remaining flour, stir until a dough forms.
4. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, about 5 minutes.
5. Transfer the dough to an oiled bowl, cover and let rise in a draft-free spot until billowy and doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
6. Bake at 450° on a pizza stone if possible for about 12 minutes.
