Hello SETI,
Welcome to the Pizza making forum. There are many different opinions here as to what is the best cheese for pizza. You should be using mozzarella cheese, it has very good melting qualities. If you can find it fresh mozzarella or whole milk can also be used for a more authentic/ fresh taste. There are many different brands of Mozzarella, so you will just have to find one to your liking. You will find many good recipes for pizza if you search through the New York Style section here at the forum. Goodluck, Chiguy
