POOLISH:
50g water
pinch yeast
50g ap flour

1. Combine water, yeast, and flour. 2. Stir to combine. 3. Put mixture in a container with a lid and let sit at room temp for 18-24 hours.

180g warm water
All of the poolish
5g yeast
10g olive oil
315 ap flour
8 salt

1. Into a container add warm water, all of the ripe poolish, oil, and 5g yeast and stir to combine. Set aside. 2. Into the bowl of a food processor add flour, salt, and sugar. Slowly stream in wet ingredients. Spin until well combined + 15 seconds. 3. Flip out onto cutting board and give it 30-40 rolls with the palm of your hand for about 60 seconds as shown in video. 4. Tuck into a ball and put in oiled bowl then wrap with plastic and allow to ferment at room temp for 45 mins. 5. Flip out onto surface and divide into two 300g balls and shape into round balls with seam at the bottom. Be sure to close the seams well. 6. Put the dough balls onto an oiled sheet tray, cover with plastic, and put in fridge to proof for about 24 hours.

If you're making the dough WITHOUT poolish, use the recipe above, but omit the poolish and instead use 50g more flour & 50g more water to the amounts in the recipe above.
