Instructions
- 1.
Combine flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 3 to 4 times until incorporated.
- 2.
Add olive oil and water. Run the food processor until the mixture forms a ball that rides around the bowl above the blade, about 15 seconds. Continue processing for 15 seconds longer.
- 3.
Transfer the dough ball to a lightly floured surface and knead once or twice by hand until a smooth ball is formed. It should pass the windowpane test.
- 4.
Divide the dough into three even parts and place each in a covered quart-sized deli container or in a zipper-lock freezer bag.
- 5.
Place in the refrigerator and allow to rise for at least 1 day, and up to 5 days.
- 6.
Remove from refrigerator, shape into balls, and allow to rest at room temperature for at least 2 hours before baking.
