For the best crust, use high-protein bread flour (12-14% protein). Don't overload the pizza with toppings; less is more for a crispy crust. If you don't have a pizza stone, you can use a baking sheet, but the crust won't be as crispy. Experiment with different toppings to create your own signature pizza.
