active dry yeast

💰Cheaper: instant yeast

Instant yeast can be mixed directly with dry ingredients.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Avocado oil has a higher smoke point and is healthier.

salt

🥗Healthier: sea salt

💰Cheaper: table salt

Sea salt can enhance flavor with less sodium.

Mix 3 cups of flour, 1/4 teaspoon of yeast, and 1 teaspoon of salt in a bowl until combined.

Add 1 1/2 cups of very hot water to the dry ingredients and stir until a sticky, shaggy dough forms.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it sit on the countertop for 3-5 hours until puffy.

Flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it, adding a little flour to manage the stickiness.

Fold the dough over a couple of times to shape it into a ball.

Place the dough on parchment paper in a bowl and cover with a towel.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C) with a Dutch oven inside for about 35 minutes.

After preheating, carefully remove the hot Dutch oven and place the dough with parchment paper into it.

Cover with the lid and bake for 30 minutes.

Remove the lid and bake for an additional 10-30 minutes until the crust is as crispy as desired.
