Imo’s Pizza Recipe (St. Louis Style Pizza),If you’ve had it, you know its crispy and amazing.he definitive characteristics of St. Louis-style pizza are a super-thin yeast-less crust, the common (but not mandatory) use of Provel processed cheese, and pizzas cut into squares or rectangles instead of large pie shaped slices. The crust is too thin to be folded like a NY style slice so little party pieces werer made. Provel is a trademark for three cheeses fused to form one (provolone, swiss, and white cheddar), used instead of (or, rarely, in addition to) the mozzarella or provolone common to other styles of pizza. (wikipedia.com) George’s pizza off of 95th St. in Overland Park, KS is my favorite pizza joint hands down. They do a similar style to this.,Are the measurements for the herbs for fresh or dried?,Excellent recipe for Imo’s pizza. I grew up in St. Louis and moved away after college. One of the highlights of going back each Christmas is having Imo’s pizza. This year with Covid my family was not able to travel so I wanted to continue the Imo’s pizza tradition at home. This recipe was spot on. I did splurge and ordered Imo’s sauce from Amazon but followed the rest of the recipe and it was perfect. I baked mine in a 500 degree oven on the lowest rack using a pizza stone and finished it by sprinkling oregano before cutting. My whole family gave it rave reviews and said it was as if we were in St. Louis!!!
