1.
Activate Yeast. In a large bowl, whisk together the warm water, salt, sugar, and yeast. Let sit for 5 minutes until bubbles form.
2.
Mix Dough. Add the flour and mix until a very wet, shaggy dough forms.

Prepare the Pan. Pour 2 tbsp olive oil into a 10 x 14 inch metal pan and coat the bottom.
5.
Second Rise. Transfer the dough into the pan and gently stretch it to the corners. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rise again until doubled and nearly reaching the top of the pan.
6.
Preheat. Preheat grill or oven to 425°F.
7.
Top the Focaccia. Lightly dimple the surface of the dough with your fingers. Drizzle with olive oil and evenly distribute the sausage, mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil over the top. Sprinkle with flaky salt.
