Pizza Dough With Sourdough Starter

  1. Using your fingers, break the starter dough into 1-inch pieces in a bowl and mix with 1 cup room temperature water until soupy and chunky.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flours and salt, then add the starter and water.
  3. Mix with a wooden spoon until the dough begins to bind, then let rest for 5 minutes.
  4. Using the dough hook, knead on the mixers second-lowest setting for 5 to 7 minutes, until dough pulls away from the bowl and becomes a smooth ball.
  5. Lift dough hook, scraping off any excess dough.
  6. Settle a sheet of plastic wrap on the dough, and let rest for 3 to 4 hours.
  7. Cut dough into 4 8-ounce pieces.
  8. (For smaller pizzas, divide into 5 6-ounce pieces.)
  9. Turn each piece out on a floured surface, folding and kneading three or four times until it becomes a smooth ball.
  10. Place each piece in a plastic bin large enough to allow it to double in size, let a sheet of plastic wrap settle on the dough, and cover with a lid.
  11. Refrigerate for 48 hours, or at least 24 hours, before shaping and baking.
