Preparation Steps

Activate yeast by mixing warm water and sugar, then adding yeast and letting sit until frothy.
Mix dough by stirring in olive oil and combining dry ingredients before mixing into wet.
Knead dough on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Let dough rise in an oiled bowl covered until it doubles in size, about 1-1.5 hours.
After rising, punch down and divide into 8 pieces, shaping each into an oval on cornmeal dusted sheet.
Cover shaped rolls and let rise until puffy, about 45-60 minutes.
Preheat oven to 425°F. Slash tops, brush with egg wash, sprinkle with salt, and bake for 18-20 minutes.
