Prepare the Dough
In a large bowl, dissolve the yeast and sugar in warm water. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy. In another bowl, mix the flour and salt. Gradually add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the flour, mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
