Ingredients
  

  • 350 g Warm Water
  • 115 g Sourdough Starter (active and bubbly)
  • 500 g Bread Flour
  • 15 g Salt
  • 4 oz mozzarella cheese (shredded)
  • 1/8 c tomato sauce
  • toppings of choice

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the water and sourdough starter. Make sure the sourdough starter floats, that means it is active and ready. Mix well to dissolve the starter.
  • Add the flour and salt to the bowl and mix well until a shaggy dough forms. Cover with a damp kitchen towel. Perform a stretch and fold 30 minutes in and then another 30 minutes after that.
  • Let the dough rise at room temperature for 8-10 hours covered with a damp kitchen towel.
  • After the dough has risen, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Cut it in half and form the dough into two balls. Let them rest on the bench for 15 minutes.
  • Working with one dough ball at a time, stretch the dough into a pizza shape. Place the dough on your baking vessel. I like to use a cast iron skillet or pizza pan.
  • Preheat the oven to 450℉. Place the dough into the cast iron skillet or baking pan. Bake for 10-15 minutes.
  • Remove the cast iron skillet from the oven and prepare your toppings.
  • Spread the sauce over the par-baked pizza dough. Make sure to evenly distribute the sauce over the dough.
  • Sprinkle with the mozzarella cheese and bake for another 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and melted.
