Steps
1Add the bulk of the flour to a large mixing bowl. Whisk the flour and make a well in the middle. Set aside.
2Make the scald. Add water to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and turn off the heat. Add flour, agave syrup, olive oil and salt.
3Whisk to combine. Add cold water to the roux and whisk until smooth. This will lower the temperature.
4Add yeast. Whisk to dissolve.
5Add the scald to the flour.
6Mix to combine using a spoon, a spatula or a dough scraper. Mix until the dough is smooth and doesn't have any lumps. Cover the bowl with clingfilm and place in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes.

Fold 8 times clockwise. 
Cover and chill for 30 minutes in the fridge.

10Tuck each one into a ball and roll.
11Place on top of a baking tray lined with baking paper.
