How to Make Cooks Country St Louis Style Pizza

  1. Preheat oven to 550°F (288°C). If using a pizza stone, place it in the oven while preheating.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, and yeast. Gradually add the water, mixing until a shaggy dough forms.
  3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
  4. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
  5. Punch down the dough and roll it out to a 12-inch circle or rectangle (depending on your pan).
  6. Transfer the dough to a pizza pan or pizza stone.
  7. Spread the tomato sauce evenly over the crust.
  8. Sprinkle with Provel cheese (or white American cheese) and then add your choice of toppings like pepperoni, sausage, or mushrooms.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  10. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
