Provolone Cheese on Pizza

EGGARY · December 2009

Last night my wife made Provoletta, which is a 1" hunk of Provolone cheese into a 6" cast iron pan and put into the oven, and yes it can be done on the EGG. Then after it melts for awhile, it is put on sliced baguette.

Anyways, I was wondering about putting provolone cheese on pizza.

Any thoughts ?

Thanks.

Gary,

Pizza and lasagne I usually mix provolone, mozzarella, fontina and asiago. Lot more flavour.

Of course you can. It ends in a vowel.

In St Louis the most popular pizza chain (Imo's) uses provolone.

I really like it in combination with mozzarella...adds a nice flavor.

70% mozzarella and 30% provolone on our pies

Gary, I like a mixture incorporating mozzarella (for the gooey, stringy texture) with the other cheeses (for flavor) mentioned by Little Steven. By the way, proveletta sounds like the Italian equivalent of the Swiss/French raclette....but I bet it smells much better. Raclette absolutely stinks.

I find that mixing cheeses is always great on pizza, and provolone adds great flavor. I usually do equal parts mozz and monterrey jack, and a small amount of provolone, unless it's a very mild provolone. I find that mozz is a little to stringy when melted, and the jack tends to inhibit that a bit, and the provolone tastes great. Like Steven said, asiago is another good one for flavor.
