In a mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, combine warm water (40-43 °C) with 7 g of active dry yeast (not instant).
Add 1 teaspoon of granulated sugar, stir, and let sit for 5-7 minutes until foamy, indicating the yeast is active.
Add 2 cups (240 g) of all-purpose flour, ¾ teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons sugar, and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
Mix on low speed for about 1 minute, then increase to medium-low speed and continue mixing for about 5 minutes until a smooth, elastic dough forms.
If the dough feels too wet, gradually add 1-2 tablespoons of flour; if it’s too dry, add warm water 1 tablespoon at a time until you achieve the right consistency.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Gently press it down with your hands, stretch, and fold it, adding flour as needed until it forms a pliable ball.
Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough inside, and turn it to coat all sides with oil.
Cover the bowl with a damp towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm spot for about 1 hour, until it doubles in size.
Towards the end of the rising time, preheat your oven to 230 °C (450 °F).
Gently deflate the dough to release air and spread it onto a floured baking sheet or pizza stone in a circular shape, leaving the edges slightly thicker.
