Method
- Gently warm water, add yeast and a pinch of sugar, and let it bloom for a few minutes.
- Combine the flour, salt, olive oil, and the active yeast mixture. Knead until smooth, and then cover it to rest.
- Shape your dough and add your favorite fresh herbs. Use a slightly lower oven temperature with a longer bake to achieve a crisp crust with a soft, airy center.
- Brush with olive oil and sprinkle a touch of sea salt and herbs just before serving for that extra burst of flavor.

Chef’s Insider Tip: Before baking, mist your dough with water and let it rest for an extra 10 minutes. This simple step helps develop a truly irresistible crust that is crisp on the outside and tender inside.
