Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 cup water, very warm
1 tbsp yeast
1 cup unbleached flour
1 1/4 tsp yeast
1 1/4 cups water, warm
3 1/2-4 1/2 cups flour
olive oil
cornmeal

Directions:

To make starter - 1-3 days before baking bread, mix water and yeast but do not stir. Let sit for 5-10 minutes. Add flour and mix 5 minutes or so with your hand. Cover with plastic and set aside in a warm place to proof until you are ready to make the bread.
To make bread - In a large bowl add yeast to 1/4 c warm water and let sit for 5-10 minutes. Add remaining water. Mix in starter until well dissolved. Add flour, starting with 3 1/2 cups adding 1/2 c more at a time as needed. You want dough to be well held together and you should be able to knead it.
Place on well floured board and knead it for 5-10 minutes, until round, smooth and elastic.
Pour a bit of olive oil in a large bowl and place dough in bowl and coat it, kneading in a bit of the oil as you go. Cover with a towel and set aside in a warm place to rise at least 2 hours.
Place dough on a floured board and knead 5-10 minutes. Shape into loaf of your choice. Place on baking sheet covered with cornmeal. Cover and let rise again, until smooth and doubled.
Bake 25-30 minutes at 400 degrees or bake on a stone for 30-35 minutes at 450 degrees.
