Preparation

For the Dough

1. In a large bowl (or stand mixing bowl), combine warm water (around 105-110 F for dry active, 95-100 F for fresh yeast), yeast, oli, and honey. Stir until dissolved. Let sit until foamy for 5 minutes. Combine the flour and salt into a separate bowl. 
2. If using a mixer - In a stand mixer over low speed begin adding the flour slowly into the water & yeast mixture. Once combined, leave the dough to continue mixing for 5-10 minutes or until the dough is firm and stretchy. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place into the fridge for 24-72 hours, or until dough has doubled in size. 
3. Divide the cold proofed dough into 4 equal pieces and shape each piece into a ball. Store each ball in a separate bowl or tray. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise for 5 hours on the kitchen counter to come to room temp and double in size.
