INGREDIENTS
| 1 | pk | Yeast, not instant |
| 1 | ts | Sugar |
| 1 1/4 | c | Warm water |
| 2 3/4 | c | Bread flour |
| 6 | tb | Olive oil |
| 1/2 | ts | Salt |
| 4 | tb | Grated parmesan cheese |
| 1/2 | ts | Dried rosemary, crushed |

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Dissolve the yeast and the sugar in 3/4 cup warm water, about 110 degrees. Set aside for 15 minutes until very foamy. 2. Stir in 1 cup flour. Cover with plastic wrap and let this sponge proof in a warm place until tripled in volume and very bubbly, about 3 hours. 3. Into the yeast mixture, add the remaining 1/2 cup warm water, 2 T olive oil, 1/2 t regular salt, parmesan and rosemary. 4. Add enough of the remaining flour to form a soft and workable dough. Knead on a lightly floured surface until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. 5. Oil a large bowl. Put the dough into the bowl, cover loosely and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours. 6. Sprinkle a baking sheet with the cornmeal. Divide the dough into 4 parts and roll each into a circle about 7 in. in diameter. Place on the baking sheet. Use the tips of your fingers to make the dimples in the dough. Spoon a tablespoon of olive oil on each bread piece and sprinkle with the coarse salt and pepper. 7. Bake in a preheated 475F oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
