Dont put steel bowl in microwave - it will explode Ceramic bowls can be put into microwave Dont put open tin cans into the fridge - they will get rusty Can use either Italian or Thai basil Prepare yeast before so it has time to rise Eye level water measurement 300 gram of flour is perfect - but can make it lighter or heavier however you prefer Always close yeast lid- they will die if exposed to open air for too long Use hand to help knead the dough - mix everything together Cover dough bowl with towel - 10 minutes Already grated cheese costs more Put bowl under grater when grating Measuring bowl is not for mixing Fresh tomatoes are expensive - table tomatoes are for pizzas Add more flour if dough is too watery/ mushy Dont put too much topping- pizza will be uncooked 1 table spoon of olive oil on tray, spread it with hand Use flour and sprinkle it on the table and rolling pin so dough would not stick to it Roll the dough on to the rolling pin and spread the dough on the tray Brush excess flour off after pre-bake Dont cut the pizza on tray
