Combine flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, sugar, and yeast in the bowl of an electric mixer, and slowly add 1 3/4 cups cold water

Place dough in an oiled bowl, and allow to rest for 2 to 4 hours until it has doubled in size

Split the dough into halves, and form each into a log

Place each log on a generously floured surface, and allow it to rest until the formed dough doubles in size again, at least 1 hour

6

Put dough on a lightly floured baker's peel

7

Dimple dough by pressing it down with your fingertips

8

Work the dough outward toward the edges of the peel until you reach your desired size and thickness, about 1/4-inch
