In a small bowl, combine the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let stand for 5–8 minutes, until the surface is foamy and the mixture smells yeasty.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Pour in the yeast mixture and olive oil, then stir with a fork until a shaggy dough forms. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–6 minutes, until the dough is smooth, elastic, and springs back when poked.
