For an enhanced depth of flavor, consider using a high-quality extra virgin olive oil. Proofing the yeast is crucial. If it doesn't foam, the yeast is inactive, and you'll need to start again with fresh yeast. Don't be afraid to experiment with different flours! Spelt flour or a touch of rye can add unique nuances to the crust. A pizza stone will yield the crispiest crust. If you don't have one, a preheated baking sheet will work well. For a truly authentic flavor, bake in a wood-fired oven if you have access to one.
