### **The Science of Balance in This Recipe**
**Butter:** Too much makes it greasy, too little makes it dry. 4 tbsp is just right.
**Garlic:** More than 3 cloves can overpower, less than 2 may not give enough flavor.
**Cheese:** The blend of mozzarella and Parmesan gives a balance of melty texture and sharpness.
**Oregano & Red Pepper Flakes:** These enhance flavor without stealing the show.
