Add 1 extra tablespoon of flour if needed. Coat your hands in a bit of olive oil and form the dough into a ball. Place the dough in a bowl that is coated in olive oil. Cover with a towel and proof the dough in a warm place until it doubles in size, 1 hour.
• Knock down the dough and cut into 4 equal pieces if making small pizzas or simply reform into a ball if making one larger pizza and proof the dough for an additional 1 hour.
• The dough is now ready to use.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix warm water and 1 teaspoon sugar; add yeast and whisk until dissolved. Let stand until bubbles form on surface. In a large bowl, whisk 3 cups flour, salt, remaining 1 teaspoon sugar and, if desired, dried herbs. Make a well in center; add yeast mixture and oil. Stir until smooth. Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. , Turn onto a floured surface; knead, adding more flour to surface as needed until no longer sticky and dough is smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a large greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes; transfer bowl to refrigerator and chill overnight. Allow dough to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes, before rolling.

Steps:

• Add the flour to a large mixing bowl or to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. In a separate bowl, combine the yeast with the warm water and stir together. Set aside for 1 to 2 minutes. When the yeast mixture starts to bubble after a couple of minutes, it is ready to use. Add the yeast to the flour and start to mix together.
• If making by hand, dump the mixture onto a counter lightly dusted with flour and knead for 5 to 6 minutes. Add the salt and knead for another 2 minutes, and add a little more flour if necessary to form an elastic dough. If making in the stand mixer, knead on low for 5 to 6 minutes, until the dough starts to become smooth and elastic. Add the salt and knead for another 2 minutes. In a large clean bowl, add the olive oil. Form the dough into a ball, put in the bowl, and turn the dough around until it is entirely coated with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 12 hours. It will double in bulk and start to develop a yeasty aroma.
• The dough is now ready to use, but for a more flavorful dough, punch it down and reform into a tight ball. Put the dough ball back in the bowl, cover, and refrigerate for another 12 hours.
• To grill the dough, preheat the grill on high. Slide the dough onto the hot grill and cook until grill marks appear and the dough is set, about 2 minutes. Carefully flip the dough over with a large spatula or tongs or your hands; brush the top with olive oil, and cook until the dough is firm but not completely cooked and grill marks appear, another 3 to 4 minutes. Slip the pizza paddle under the crust and remove from the grill. Set a large cast-iron griddle on the grill to heat or place a pizza pan in the oven and preheat to 500°F.
