- Sift the flour and salt into the large bowl of a mixer with the dough hook attachment in place. Add ¼-cup of the water at 43°C into a glass, add the honey, yeast and stir. Allow the mixture to sit until it becomes frothy and increases in size (depending on room temperature, this will take 5 to 10 minutes.)
- Add all the remaining ingredients (remaining ¾-cup warm water, ¼-cup oil, and yeast mixture) to the bowl of a mixer. Mix on slow speed to start, then increase to medium speed for ten minutes or until the dough is soft and elastic.
- Place the dough in an oiled bowl. Brush the top of the dough with a little oil and cover with plastic wrap. Allow the dough to rise in a warm, draught free area for one hour or until it has doubled in size. Punch the dough down and it is ready to use.
