To prepare the pizza crust

1. Prepare the leaven : add ¼ cup of flour, yeast, sugar and 2oz of lukewarm water in a bowl and combine the ingredients together. Leave the mixture to rest for 10-15 minutes. The mixture is ready when it forms a brown dough with bubbles.

8. Cover the bowl with the doug inside and leave to rest in a warm place for at least one hour. (You can create a warm environment in your oven by heating your oven on low heat (80°F/30°C) for approximately 5 minutes, then turning off your oven and leaving the bowl to sit inside.)
9. The dough will double in size.
