Ingredients:

¾ cup warm water (**See Note**)
1 teaspoon active dry yeast (if you buy the little envelopes you will have some left over. Envelopes typically contain 2¼ teaspoons. Fold the remaining yeast up tightly and keep refrigerated for the next time)
2 cups all purpose flour, plus more for kneading and dusting your work surfaces
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt (less if you only have table salt handy)
1½ tablespoons olive oil
cornmeal (optional)
