- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with the basil and freshly grated parmigiana reggianno.
- Pour 2-3 tablespoons of the pizza sauce in the center and spread it around with the back of a spoon leaving 1 inch of space at the edges.

- If topping with heirloom tomato slices, make sure to use the firm ones, otherwise the pizza would be watery.
