Chef's Notes
Do not rush the second rise in the pan. Rushing leads to a dense crust, and we are aiming for airy, pillow-like perfection worthy of royalty.
Pro Tip
If your kitchen is on the cooler side, turn your oven on for just 60 seconds, turn it off, and let your dough proof inside with the door cracked open.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Failing to oil your sheet pan generously will weld your precious dough to the metal forever, forcing you to consume raw sauce off a spatula in absolute shame.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the grandma pizza go to therapy? Because it had too many deep-seated crust issues from being pressed into a sheet pan.
