Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups warm water
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons dry active yeast 1 package
  • 1 teaspoon Sea Salt
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup olive oil divided

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, add the water and dissolve the package of yeast into it.
  • Stir the salt and flour 1 cup at a time until the dough becomes loose and shaggy.
  • Cover the bowl with a tea towel, and allow to rise for 1 hour.
  • In a 10 or 12-inch cast iron (or oven-safe) skillet, pour about 1/4 cup of the olive oil in the bottom.
  • Remove the tea towel from the dough, and after flouring your hands, gently work the dough into a disc. Make sure to cover the outside of the dough with flour as it will be sticky. Place the dough in the skillet, re-cover with the tea towel, and allow dough to rise again for 30 more minutes.
  • Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Remove the tea towel from the dough, and drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top. Score an X at the top to allow the steam to escape during cooking.
  • Place skillet in the oven, and bake for 40 minutes.
  • Carefully remove skillet from oven, and allow to cool before slicing.
