St. Louis Style Pizza


The pizza in St. Louis, Missouri is very unique and unlike pizza found anywhere else. The crust is extremely thin due to the fact that it no yeast is used. This makes it very cracker like and hard to fold. Instead of using the typical mozzarella cheese as the majority of pizza places do, St. Louis pizza is topped with Provel process cheese. In order to create this unique cheese provolone, swiss, and white cheddar cheese must be fused together.
I was in St. Louis last week and was able to try this interesting pizza. Although the description sounds a bit crazy it was actually very delicious! It was definitely different than any pizza I've ever tried before. I felt as though it was less filling than other pizza which was awesome because I was able to eat even more yummy food.
