In a large bowl, add your lukewarm water and sprinkle your yeast and sugar on top. Mix and leave to stand for 10 minutes until it bubbles. This activates your yeast, thus allowing your dough to rise.
Now add half your flour and salt. Mix with a wooden spoon until a dough forms. Add the rest of your flour and mix until you have a bread dough type consistency. You may need to add more flour of water to obtain this, but you need it to form a ball of dough that you can knead.
Flour a large surface and knead your dough for at least 5 minutes (see video on how to knead if you aren’t sure how). OR, use your food mixer to do this whole process. You will need to use your dough hook and allow to mix on a medium setting for 3-5 minutes. If you are using a mixer, then let your yeast mixture activate in the bottom of your mixing bowl instead.
Make sure your dough is tacky to the touch, but not sticking to your hands. Add more flour if this is the case.
