Instructions
Prepare the Dough
In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes, or until foamy. Add the flour, salt, and melted butter, mixing until a dough forms.
Knead the Dough
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour as needed.
Let the Dough Rise
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or grease them lightly.
Prepare the Baking Soda Bath
In a large pot, bring the 10 cups of water and baking soda to a boil.
