Cooking tips
Before baking, lightly grease the pizza pan with vegetable oil to prevent the dough from sticking.
Don't overload the pizza with toppings, otherwise it may not bake evenly.
Use a glass dish for better heat transfer and even cooking.
For a richer flavor, add a pinch of dried Italian herbs to the tomato paste.
Do not leave the pizza in the microwave longer than necessary to prevent the cheese from becoming dry.
