Instructions
  1. Combine yeast, flour, water, and salt in a bowl. Mix until just combined. Cover and let rest for 12-18 hours at room temperature.
  2. Gently stretch and fold the dough 2-3 times. Form into a ball and let rest for 30 minutes.
  3. While the dough rests, prepare the Sauce by hand-crushing the San Marzano tomatoes. Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  4. Add crushed tomatoes, basil, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Preheat oven to 500°F (260°C) with a pizza stone inside.
  6. Stretch the dough into a 12-inch circle.
  7. Transfer the dough to a pizza peel dusted with flour.
  8. Spread the Sauce evenly over the dough.
  9. Arrange the mozzarella and prosciutto on top.
  10. Carefully slide the pizza onto the preheated pizza stone.
  11. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  12. Top with arugula and Parmesan cheese before serving.
