1 Combine the sugar, yeast and water. Stir to dissolve the yeast.
2 Add the flour to the yeast mixture in 4 parts.
3 When the flour has been absorbed, add the first measure of salt and the onions.
4 Generously oil a bowl. Place dough in boil to rise until double. Can be refrigerated 2 hours to overnight.
