Some tips:
- Use either a fresh rigorous starter or discard.
- Use AP flour and roll thin for a crispier crust
- Use high gluten flours for a chewier crust.
- The rest is just to allow the gluten to relax. If you’re having a tough time rolling the dough let it rest for 5 minutes and try again.
- I left oven temperature off as this is highly debated amongst pizza enthusiasts. Ideally use a brick oven or a conventional oven with a pizza stone as hot as the oven will go. You can, however, get away with using a baking sheet at 450 for about 15 minutes.
Suggested toppings: Arugula, prosciutto, and balsamic glaze
