In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup warm water with yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar let set until foamy, 5 to 10 minutes. Place flour, salt and 1 teaspoon sugar in the bowl of a food processor with plastic blade in place. Turn processor on gradually add yeast mixture and 1 cup warm water. Process until soft ball forms, then process 15 to 20 seconds, adding flour if dough is too soft. Place on a lightly-floured surface and knead just until not sticky. Divide in half and shape into two narrow loaves, 8 to 10 inches long. Transfer to a baking sheet that has been sprinkled with cornmeal cut several diagonal slashes on top of loaves with a sharp knife. Repeat with second loaf. Cover and let rise in a warm place, free from drafts, until doubled, about 50 minutes. In a preheated 450° F oven, place a shallow pan of boiling water on the lowest rack. Place loaves on rack just above water bake 10 minutes, reduce heat to 400° F and mist loaves with water. Bake for 15 minutes or until loaves are golden brown and sound hollow when tapped. Remove from pans cool on wire racks.
