Special Precautions and Tips:
- Be sure to use active dry yeast and not instant yeast for best results.
- The water temperature for the yeast should be warm but not too hot (around 110 degrees F). If it's too hot, it can kill the yeast.
- For best results, let the dough rise for at least an hour before baking. This will give the crust a more flavorful and airy texture.
