3. In a large bowl, combine the wine, water, and yeast and stir until yeast is dissolved.
4. Add the honey, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil and mix thoroughly.
5. Add 1 cup of the flour and mix with a wooden spoon to make a loose batter.
6. Add 2 more cups of the flour and stir for 2 to 3 minutes to incorporate as much flour as possible.
