Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and yeast. Add warm water and stir until a shaggy, sticky dough forms.
First Rise (Overnight): Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a towel. Let it sit at room temperature for 12–18 hours until bubbly and doubled in size.
Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drizzle it with olive oil.
Shape the Dough: Using floured hands or a scraper, gently divide dough into 3–4 portions. Stretch each into a log-like shape and place on the prepared sheet.
Second Rise: Let shaped loaves rest for 1 hour, covered lightly with a towel.
Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).
Add Toppings: Optionally press in cherry tomatoes, olives, or herbs into the tops. Brush with olive oil.
Bake: Bake for 20–25 minutes or until golden brown and crusty. Let cool before slicing.
