Method
Preparation Steps
- 1
Make the Dough
In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy. Add the olive oil, salt, and flour gradually, mixing until a dough forms.
- 2
Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Shape the Knots
After the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into small pieces (about 1.5 oz each). Roll each piece into a rope and tie it into a knot. Place the knots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
