For a crispier crust, bake directly on a pizza stone or preheated baking sheet.
Feel free to experiment with different types of flour, such as whole wheat, for a nuttier flavor.
If you have time, letting the dough rest for longer (30-60 minutes) will develop even more flavor.
Make sure your water isn't too hot, or it will kill the yeast.
