Stromboli Recipe

Craft a rectangular canvas of pizza dough on a flour-dusted workspace, stretching it to approximately 12-15 inches, ensuring a smooth, even surface.

Layer an artful arrangement of cured meats – pepperoni, salami, and ham – across the dough’s landscape, maintaining a pristine border around the edges.

Generously scatter mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses over the meaty foundation, creating a rich, textural base for additional embellishments like briny olives and vibrant roasted peppers.

Delicately sprinkle Italian seasoning to infuse the filling with aromatic Mediterranean flavors.

Commence rolling from the elongated edge, carefully transforming the flat canvas into a compact cylindrical form, ensuring a taut and uniform configuration.

Meticulously seal the seam by pinching edges together, then fold and tuck the terminal points to prevent any potential filling escape.

Position the rolled creation seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet, presenting a smooth, unblemished exterior.

Lovingly coat the entire surface with a glistening egg wash, creating a golden, crisp exterior.

Optional: Embellish with a delicate scattering of sesame seeds or an additional whisper of Italian seasoning.

Transfer to a preheated oven and bake until the exterior transforms into a rich, amber-hued shell, approximately 25-30 minutes.

Allow the Stromboli a brief moment of repose, cooling for 5-10 minutes to set its internal structure.

Slice into elegant portions and present alongside a vibrant marinara or classic pizza sauce for an interactive dining experience.
