Tips:

- For a crispier crust, pre-bake the pizza dough for a few minutes before adding the toppings. - Don't overload the pizza with toppings, as this will make it soggy. - Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. - If you're using a store-bought pizza sauce, doctor it up with some Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder. - Be generous with the cheese, as it helps to hold the toppings in place and gives the pizza a delicious gooeyness. - Bake the pizza at a high temperature so that the crust gets crispy and the cheese melts and bubbles. - Let the pizza cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving, as this will help to prevent the toppings from sliding off.
