Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup warm water (110°F)
  • 2 tsp active dry yeast
  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar

  • 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt (plus extra for sprinkling)
  • 1/4 cup baking soda (for boiling)

Instructions

  2. In a large bowl, mix flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and melted butter; stir until combined.
  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place dough in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
