Italian Stromboli (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
1 pound of dough for pizza.
02 -
1 tablespoon of olive oil.
03 -
1 clove garlic, finely chopped.
04 -
1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano.
05 -
Dash of crushed red chili flakes (optional).
06 -
3 tablespoons romano cheese, grated.
07 -
4 slices (3 ounces) of provolone cheese.
08 -
4 slices (3 ounces) of deli ham.
09 -
4 slices (3 ounces) of mozzarella cheese.
10 -
14 slices (3 ounces) of mixed Italian deli meats like salami and pepperoni.
11 -
1 beaten egg.
12 -
Dipping marinara sauce.
# Instructions:
01 -
Set the oven at 375°F and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
02 -
On a floured surface, roll out your dough to a rectangle about 10 by 12 inches.
03 -
Place the dough with one long edge close to you. Add a layer of oil, keeping about an inch of the edges clean.
04 -
Sprinkle the oregano, garlic, romano cheese, and chili flakes over the oiled section.
05 -
Start layering: put provolone cheese first, then ham, mozzarella, and finally the meats.
06 -
Brush the edges of the dough with the beaten egg. Fold the bottom up, fold the top over like you're sealing a letter, and pinch the seams together.
07 -
Flip the dough with the seam facing down onto the tray. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and set aside for an hour.
08 -
Coat the top with egg and cut five tiny slits into the dough for ventilation.
09 -
Bake for about 35 minutes until golden brown. Internal temperature should reach 200°F.
10 -
Let it cool for 15-20 minutes. Slice into 1-inch pieces and serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
# Notes:
01 -
1 pound of dough works perfectly.
02 -
Make ahead and refrigerate up to 12 hours.
03 -
Freeze for 3 months without egg and slits.
04 -
Add more bake time if chilled.
