Cooking Tips

• For a crispier crust, pre-bake the rolled dough for 5 minutes before adding toppings.
• You can freeze the dough for later use. Just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
• To thaw frozen dough, place it in the refrigerator overnight and let it come to room temperature before rolling and baking.
