Stir yeast into warm water and let it stand until foamy, then mix with flour, salt, and olive oil to form a shaggy dough.
Knead until smooth and elastic, cover, and let rise until doubled in size.
Divide the dough into small oval loaves, dust lightly with flour, and let them proof while the oven heats.
Bake on a hot sheet or stone until the crust is pale golden and the loaves sound hollow when tapped; cool before slicing.
