In a large mixing bowl, combine the lukewarm water and active sourdough starter. Stir gently to dissolve.

Gradually add in the flour, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.

Sprinkle the sea salt over the dough, and continue mixing with your hands until incorporated.

Don’t worry if it feels a little sticky; that’s okay!

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead for about 6-8 minutes, until it becomes elastic and smooth.

If it’s too wet, you can sprinkle a little more flour as needed.

Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise at room temperature for 4-6 hours or until doubled in size.

For enhanced flavor, you can also place it in the fridge and let it rise overnight.

Once risen, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and divide it into two equal pieces.

Shape each piece into a ball and let them rest for about 30 minutes under a damp cloth.

While the dough is resting, preheat your oven to its highest setting (usually around 475°F to 500°F) and place a pizza stone or an inverted baking sheet inside to heat up.

Flatten one dough ball on the floured surface, stretching it out gently into a circle.

Transfer it to a parchment-lined pizza peel or baking sheet.

Add your favorite sauce, cheese, and toppings.

Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated stone or baking sheet and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden and crispy.

Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy the homemade goodness!
