Pour 1/2 cup warm water into a small bowl and stir in sugar. Pour the yeast over the water and let stand 10 minutes until foamy.

Pour the remaining 2 cups water in a large bowl or pot. Stir in the yeast mixture. Add flour and salt and using your hand, stir the mixture vigorously in a circular motion. Continue stirring this way for about 5 minutes until you have a thick, smooth dough.

Cover well and place in a warm, draft free place in your kitchen. Let sit for 4 hours. The dough is ready when bubbles form on the surface and it has at least doubled in volume.
