2. Add 1/2 cup floour and mix into bowl. Then add another 1/2 cup and mix until thoroughly combined. Add additional flour if necessary. The dough should be slightly sticky and pull away easily from the edge of the bowl.
3. Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl and cover with a towel or plastic wrap. Let rise for 30 minutes at room temperature. Then, remove the towel/plastic wrap and deflate the dough by punching down lightly.
