2½ cups lukewarm water
2 teaspoons Red Star Active Dry Yeast
5½ cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting the work surface with
1 tablespoon Kosher salt
10 cloves garlic, minced
¾ cup green onion, sliced finely
Olive oil for brushing the dough
¼ cup cornmeal
INSTRUCTIONS
Fill a medium sized bowl with the water and sprinkle the yeast on top of it.
Whisk the yeast until it's dissolved.
Add 3 cups of the flour and stir with a heavy spatula or wooden spoon until smooth.
Add the salt and then the remaining flour. Stir again until well combined.
Dust a clean work surface with some flour and dump out the dough.
Start to knead the dough dusting with more flour if things get sticky.
Once the dough is a round ball, about 5-7 minutes of kneading, place the dough back into the bowl it came from making sure to coat the bowl with a little olive oil.
Cover the dough and let rise in a warm area for 2-3 hours or until doubled in size.
Once the dough is ready, preheat your oven to 550 degrees or as hot as it can go if not that high.
Place a pizza stone or a large upturned baking tray on the top shelf of the oven as it heats up. Dust it with a little of the corneal.
Transfer the dough to a floured surface and punch the air out of it. Cut the dough into 4 pieces.
Using your finger tips press each piece of dough into an oval shape about 8 inches long and 6 inches wide.
