Tip

Water - use preboiled or filtered water NOT spring/bottled for best results.

Sourdough Starter - use 'discarded' or straight from fridge Starter as you aren't looking for much rise in a pizza.

Place dough in a warm place for a faster rise or cooler to slow it down.

Tangy crust and slow rise (could be all day) comes from low use Starter that hasn't been fed recently. Good when wanting to make dough in morning and rise all day ready for dinner.

Less sour crust and fast rise ( approx 1 hr) will come from a regularly fed more active Starter. Will give you a pizza in about 4 hours.

Toppings - the wetter your toppings the more important it is to par bake first. My photo topping is - smoked salmon, avocado, pesto, creme fraiche, lemon juice and chopped parsley.

Some other Sourdough recipes I've posted are Tart Sourdough Bread (incl step pictures), Easy Sourdough Bread, No Knead Sourdough and Sourdough Spelt Crackers (also good for using up 'discarded' Starter).

    AncientWisdom: You'll still have pizza, just not as much rise - extending the whole process longer may work??

    Carolyn18:Agree re Starter moisture as they can vary significantly depending on what flour you use and how far into it's fermentation cycle it is....glad they worked well for you.😋

    Thanks for the recipe, my dough was a bit wet, maybe because of my starter, anyway added some more flour, and it was a very tasty base / pizza cooked in the Webber.

    My sourdough starter had been recently fed and is stored in the pantry. I gave it 5 hours to proof, pricked it (as other comment suggested) and pre-cooked the base before letting it cool on a wire rack. I'd made two batches, and had the bases ready for toppings and to be throwin in the overn when guests arrived. They turned out crispy and really tasty.
