Preparation:
  1. Mix the bread flour, yeast (on one side), and fine salt (on the other) in a large bowl before combining.
  2. Add 2 tbsp olive oil and gradually pour in 350-400ml(12–13.5 fl oz) lukewarm water to form a slightly sticky dough. Knead on a floured surface for 5–10 minutes until soft and smooth.
  3. Transfer the dough to a clean bowl, cover with a tea towel, and prove for 1 hour or overnight in the fridge until doubled in size.
  4. Oil the tray and stretch the dough to fill it. Cover and prove again for 35–45 minutes.
  5. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Dimple the dough with your fingers. Mix 1½ tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp water, and flaky sea salt; drizzle over the dough and top with rosemary sprigs.
  6. Bake for 18–20 minutes until golden. While still hot, drizzle with 1–2 tbsp olive oil. Cut into squares and serve warm or cold with extra olive oil.
