I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pizza crust turned out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

The pizza was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

The pizza was delicious, but I had some trouble getting the crust to cook through. I think I needed to preheat the oven to a higher temperature.

I thought the pizza was a bit bland. I would recommend adding more garlic and herbs to the caramelized onions.
