Cooking instruction summary:
1. In a large glass, whisk together the water, 1 tablespoon flour, yeast and sugar; let stand until foamy (about 5 minutes). Using a food processor, combine the remaining flour and salt. With the machine running, pour in the yeast mixture and process until the dough forms a ball. Mix for another minute, then transfer the dough to a large greased bowl, turning the dough to coat. Cover with a clean dishtowel and let rise until doubled in size (about 1 hour).2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, toss together the tomatoes, shallot, olive oil and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature to marinate.3. Preheat a large skillet; add the bacon and cook, turning once until crisp, 12 to 15 minutes Drain on paper towels, then chop into bite-sized pieces. Mash the avocado in a medium bowl.4. Preheat a griddle or large skillet to medium heat. On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 4 pieces, then flatten each one into a disk. Stretch each disk into a 10-inch round. Brush one side of each round with olive oil. Transfer to the heated pan and place oiled-side-down. Cook, lightly, brushing the tops with more oil and flipping once, until browned, about 6 minutes on each side. Transfer to a cutting board (if making these one at a time, wrap them in foil to keep warm while you finish the rest).5. Spread the avocado evenly on each crust, leaving a 3/4-inch border. Toss the arugula with the tomato mixture and divide the salad mixture between the four pizzas. Sprinkle bacon pieces on top.
