In a large bowl, using a wooden spoon, or in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the flour, sugar, yeast and salt. Add the water and mix just until the dough starts to form a ball. Knead the dough with your hands for 5 minutes on a lightly floured work surface, or with the dough hook, just until smooth.
