Now, your pizza base is ready.

Tips
One of the basic tips is to make sure that you have preheated the oven. In case you are using a standard oven then make sure its preheated at 280 degree Celsius.
In case you are using a readymade base, make sure its not cold. Make sure that you take it out half an hour before you start making the pizza.
