Notes
Preheating your oven properly ensures that the crust cooks evenly and achieves the desired crispness. If using homemade pizza dough, make sure to follow the instructions for proofing and rolling out the dough to achieve the best texture. Feel free to customize your pizza by adding additional toppings such as olives, red onions, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra flavor. For a crispy crust, preheat your baking sheet or pizza stone in the oven before placing the rolled-out dough on it. Add the delicate arugula and burrata cheese after baking the pizza to preserve their freshness and prevent wilting or overcooking. Enjoy!
