   • Stir together the water, yeast, and sugar in a bowl until well combined.

2. Activate Yeast:

   • Let the mixture rest until the yeast foams, approximately 3 minutes.

3. Mix Dry Ingredients:

   • In a separate mixing bowl, combine 2 1/2 cups of bread flour, cornmeal, and salt.

4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

   • Add the yeast mixture and olive oil to the dry ingredients, stirring until a sticky dough forms.

5. Knead the Dough:

   • Remove the dough from the bowl and knead it on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, gradually adding the remaining flour until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.

6. Optional Texture Enhancement:

   • The longer you knead, the more texture your dough will have.

7. First Rise:

   • Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a dry towel, and place it in a warm, draft-free area (such as a preheated oven turned off) to rise for at least one hour or until doubled in size.

8. Punch Down and Add Extras:

   • Once the dough has doubled in bulk, punch it down. You can add any optional ingredients at this point, such as fresh herbs, minced garlic, parmiagiano-reggiano, or extra cornmeal for texture.

9. Second Rise:

   • Let the dough rise again until almost doubled in size, approximately 30 minutes.

10. Shape and Add Toppings:

    • If no extra additions were made, shape the dough and add your desired toppings.

11. Bake:

    • Preheat the oven to 500°F (260°C). Bake the pizza for about 8 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the toppings are bubbly and cooked to your liking.

12. Enjoy:

    • Slice, serve, and enjoy your homemade pizza!

Notes:

• Prep time includes rising time.
• Feel free to customize your pizza with your favorite toppings.
• For added flavor, consider using fresh herbs and minced garlic.
• Don’t forget to sprinkle extra cornmeal on the baking surface for added texture.
