    Try adding gluten.  I got some gluten at a health food store, and
    add it to any bread made with non-white flour, or any pizza
    dough.  Gluten is what makes bread springy and makes it rise
    better.  Lack of gluten in the flour is what makes home-made
    rye bread the height and texture of bricks.  I add a few
    tablespoons to each 2-loaf recipe.  Probably a tablespoon
    for every 4 cups of flour.  Might be more for pizza.

    Cook your pizza on a stone, it makes a world of difference. Pizza
    and bread stones are talked about in great detail somewhere else
    in this conference.
