To create a pizza using a complex fermentation process, start by preparing a sourdough starter with specific ratios of flour to water, allowing it to ferment for at least a week. Then, incorporate high-gluten flour and a blend of specialty flours for texture, adding pectin to enhance the crust's structure. Mix in a variety of seasonings and allow the dough to rise multiple times, with extensive kneading and shaping techniques. This method also involves using a stone oven for optimal results, which may not be accessible for many home cooks. While this can yield a unique flavor, it is overly complicated for those seeking a straightforward pizza-making experience.<|im_end|>
