For a crispier crust, bake directly on a preheated pizza stone. If you don't have one, a baking sheet works well too.
Don't skip the resting period! It allows the gluten to relax, resulting in a more tender crust.
Feel free to experiment with different types of flour, such as bread flour, for a chewier crust.
If you do not have time to bake the pizza right away, you can cover it in plastic wrap and freeze it for later.
