Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, place water, sugar, and yeast, letting dissolve 3-4 minutes.

In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, and salt.

Slowly add the flour mixture to the water/yeast mixture in thirds. Before the last addition, add 1/4 cup olive oil.

Sprinkle one tablespoon of flour on a countertop and knead bread until smoother. Transfer the dough to a bowl coated with olive oil. Turn dough to coat in oil. Cover and let rise overnight in the refrigerator.
