Instructions

  1. Add the yeast, sugar and 1 1/2 cups of warm water (110 degrees) in a bowl.
  2. Let it sit for 5 minutes then add in the 3 1/2 cups of flour and 1 1/2 teaspoons of kosher salt.
  3. Mix well, then add in the olive oil and mix until combined and smooth.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and a kitchen towel on top.
  5. Let sit in a warm place for an hour and a half.
  6. Put the ball of dough in your stand mixer with a dough hook.
  7. Turn onto medium speed and let it go for 5 minutes.
  8. Add more flour if it is too sticky to handle.
  9. Add the dough back to the bowl, cover again and let rise for 1 1/2 hours.
  10. Take dough out of the bowl and put onto a floured surface.
  11. Brush olive oil on the bottom of a baking sheet and leave upside down (greased side up).
  12. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, dusting with more flour if needed.
  13. Cut the dough in half.
  14. Roll out both halves into 12-by-3-inch rectangles, about 1/2 inch thick.
  15. Put the dough rectangles onto the baking sheet.
  16. Let rest for 2 1/2 hours. You want the top of the dough to get dry and crusty.
  17. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees
  18. Put the greased baking sheet in the oven for 15 minutes.
  19. Poke the tops of the dough with your fingers making indentations and pull slightly to create the top crackled effect.
  20. Brush the tops of the dough with melted butter and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt.
  21. Bake on the bottom rack for 7 minutes, then move to the middle rack and bake for an additional five minutes.
  22. Remove from oven and brush on more melted butter.
