    That crust is perfect. What all did you put in it?

      i used to buy the frozen balls of dough, but this is my second try making the dough from scratch and it seems easy enough? i'm just going by feel, measurements are estimates, but here's my process:

      stir ~1.5 teaspoons active dry yeast and a pinch of sugar into ~400ml of lukewarm water, let it sit ~10min stirring occasionally

      dump ~2-3 cups flour and ~2 teaspoons table salt in a mixing bowl

      when the 10min is up, add the water into the dry mix (maybe reserve 10%? i usually just add it all anyways), add a few glugs of olive oil and mix it all together into a dough. my ratios must be off tho bc the dough is still really loose at this point, so i add just enough spoons of flour to get it coming together.

      dump it out onto a floured cutting board, stretch it out on one axis, fold it over on itself, rotate 90deg, and repeat a bunch of times. when you are done folding, sort of spin it/pinch it in your cupped hands to shape it into a neat little ball by stretching the surface of the dough sort of around the ball itself(?). i think this is a bread making thing idk how important it really is vs just getting some gluten with the folding action.

      drizzle some olive oil in a big bowl, drop your dough in there, then drizzle some more on top so it doesnt dry out and form a skin while it rises. let it sit your counter for 1-2hrs and it should double in size.
