"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Preheat oven to 500 degrees F. Put a pizza stone in the oven while it preheats, and let it warm at 500 degrees F for at least 10 minutes.*
Make the Pizza Dough
Combine warm water, yeast, and sugar in a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes or until it becomes frothy and bubbles form.
Gently stir in olive oil.
Add 2 cups of flour and salt and mix with a spatula until a ball begins to form (dough will still be slightly sticky). Add more flour as needed to form a dough ball.
Transfer to a floured surface and knead into a smooth dough, adding up to ½ cup extra flour if needed.
Optional. if desired, cover the bowl with a damp tea towel and let it rise for 10 minutes or up to 1 hour.
Roll the dough into your desired shape and put it on a piece of parchment paper.
Add pizza sauce, cheese and toppings of choice.
Use a pizza peel to transfer the pizza to the preheated pizza stone in the oven.
Bake on the preheated pizza stone for 12-15 minutes or until the bottom of the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pizza from the oven with the pizza peel and put it on a wire rack to cool for 5-10 minutes before cutting and serving.
