2 tablespoons dried yeast
1 cup warm water
2 cup flour
1 cup corn flour
1 tablespoon Italian olive oil
1 tablespoon rosemary, chopped
4 sage leaves, torn
3 1/2 oz Italian olives, pitted
2 tablespoon garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons salt
Mix the yeast into a large mixing bowl with the water and let stand for 10 minutes. Add in the Italian olive oil, rosemary, sage, olives and garlic. Mix in the flours, salt and stir until the dough is thick and smooth. Knead by hand until the dough is firm and elastic.
Set the dough in a lightly oiled container, cover with plastic wrap and let rise until doubled. Place the dough into an oiled baking pan. Cover and leave for 30 minutes until it has half risen.
Preheat oven to 400F, dimple the top of the dough and sprinkle with salt and 2 tablespoons of Italian olive oil. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown.
