SPECIALTY STROMBOLI

Steps:

• For the dough: Coat dough ball in flour/cornmeal mixture and hand-toss to 12 inches.
• For the fillings: Preheat the oven to 575 degrees F.
• Add 2 to 3 rows of pepperoni lengthwise, just above halfway to edge of dough. Evenly spread 5-cheese blend over pepperoni. Add spicy Italian sausage, green peppers, mushrooms and red onions evenly over top of cheese. Pull top quarter of empty dough over top of fillings and press down to connect the dough. Grab bottom half of empty dough and pull over fillings, then roll the remaining dough under to form an elongated pizza pocket.
• Bake until crust is golden brown and cheese is fully melted in middle, about 13 minutes. Remove from oven and top with garlic oil. Serve with side of marinara for dipping.

STROMBOLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven (with pizza stone inside ) to 450 degrees F. (If do not have pizza stone, can use a baking sheet). Sprinkle a little flour on your work surface. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a 10 by 14-inch rectangle. Cover the rectangle with layers of your desired toppings, leaving a 1-inch border around the sides and at the top. Mix the three cheeses and the herbs together in a small bowl and sprinkle on top of the toppings.
• Starting at the end closest to you, roll the stromboli into a log. Seal the dough by pinching firmly with fingertips on sides and ends.
• Sprinkle a little cornmeal on a pizza paddle. Put the stromboli on the paddle. Make sure the seam is on the bottom. Use a pastry brush to brush the top and sides of the stromboli with a little olive oil. Carefully place the stromboli on preheated pizza stone. Turn down oven temperature to 400 degrees F. and bake for 35 minutes. Carefully remove from oven and let rest 5 to 10 minutes. Slice with a serrated knife.

BROCCOLI CHEESE STROMBOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Oil a baking sheet with 1 tablespoon olive oil and set aside.
• Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 2 minutes. Add the broccoli and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cook until the broccoli has softened slightly and become bright green, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Lightly flour a clean work surface and stretch or roll the dough into a large rectangle, about 11-by-13 inches. With the long side closest to you, spread the pesto on the dough, leaving about a 1-inch border on all sides. (You'll want to maintain the 1-inch border when adding the remaining toppings.) Top the pesto with the broccoli mixture and sprinkle over the Cheddar. Shingle the mozzarella slices over the Cheddar. Sprinkle on the basil leaves.
• Fold the short sides in, then roll the dough into a log. Place the stromboli seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Using a sharp knife, make 5 to 6 diagonal slits on top of the dough. Brush the top with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with the grated Parmesan.
• Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Allow to cool for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Serve the warmed marinara alongside and top each serving with some more fresh basil.

STROMBOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven 475 degrees, with a pie stone or baking sheet inside.
• On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a 10 by 14-inch rectangle. Sprinkle with pepperoni, Sauteed mushrooms, sauteed onions, red peppers, leaving a 1-inch border on all side. Mix the cheese and the herbs together in a small bowl and sprinkle over toppings.
• Roll the stromboli into a log. Seal the dough by pinching the edges and seam.
• Sprinkle some cornmeal on a pizza paddle and place the stromboli, seam-side down on the paddle. Brush the stromboli with 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil. Carefully place it on the preheated baking sheet or pizza stone. Turn down oven temperature to 400 degrees and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.

STROMBOLI BITES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Reserve 2/3 cup of the marinara for dipping.
• Lightly flour a work surface. Roll the pizza dough out to a 12-by-15-inch rectangle. Cut the rectangle into fifteen 3-by-4-inch rectangles. Spread 1 teaspoon of the remaining marinara over each little rectangle, leaving a 1-inch unsauced border.
• Cover the sauce with 3 to 4 slices of pepperoni, and then 3 to 4 pieces of salami, neatly layering them. Top the meat with about 1 teaspoon each black olives and pepperoncini. Sprinkle 1 heaping tablespoon mozzarella on top of each.
• Roll each rectangle up like a burrito: Fold a long edge of each rectangle snugly over the filling, tuck in the sides and roll up tightly. Pinch the seams to seal. Put the stromboli seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle the tops with Parmesan. Bake until golden brown,15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, microwave the reserved 2/3 cup marinara in a microwave-safe bowl until warm. Serve with the stromboli bites for dipping.

STROMBOLI

Steps:

• For the dough: Whisk together 2 cups cold water, the yeast and 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Put in a stand mixer with the dough hook attachment. Mix on speed 1, or low speed, for 5 minutes. Add the flour and continue mixing for an additional 5 minutes. Then turn the mixer to speed 2, or medium speed, and mix for 5 minutes. Add the salt until incorporated. Add 1 tablespoon oil at the end of the 5 minutes.
• Transfer the mixture to a large hotel pan greased with oil. If you don't have a hotel pan, you can use a large bowl; just make sure there is ample space for the dough to double in size. Put a little oil on top as well, about 2 tablespoons.
• Wrap all the way around with plastic wrap and put on top of the oven (or other warm, draft-free area) with something in between, such as a kitchen towel or a baking tray, for about 1 1/2 hours. The dough will double in size.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• When ready, transfer the dough to an oiled table or flat surface. Form into a log to make it easier to portion, and cut into two equal pieces. Cover with plastic so it doesn't dry out. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes.
• Lightly brush a baking tray with oil. Spread out the dough on the oiled counter top with the palms of your hands, don't use your fingertips. It should be even all the way around, with no fat edges.
• Place half the fillings on one piece of dough in the order listed: mozzarella, salt, basil, garlic, pepper and salami. Fill two-thirds of the surface, leaving the bottom third and a little on the sides empty. Roll the dough over twice, seal the sides with your palm, fold over the bottom and then the sides. Transfer to the oiled tray. Rub a little oil on top. Repeat with the second portion of dough. Put the rosemary, sea salt and tomatoes on top. Cover the tray with plastic and let sit for 15 minutes to rest.
• When ready, put a pan of ice in the oven for 5 minutes. Remove. Place the tray in the oven and bake for a total of 45 minutes. After 20 minutes, turn 180 degrees. Bake another 20 minutes, then turn again and bake the remaining 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a new baking sheet lined with parchment. Allow the loaves to cool. Slice and serve with Citrus Herb Oil and Mascarpone Butter for dipping.
• Combine the oils, garlic, zests, herbs and red pepper flakes in a large stockpot. Slowly bring up the heat. When the oil is warm, take off the heat and cover. Allow to cool with everything in the oil. Strain as needed.
• Combine the butter and mascarpone cheese in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment. Mix until well combined and light.

STROMBOLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a large baking sheet and set aside.
• In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium-high heat until browned and the fat is rendered, about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on paper towels. Discard all but 1 tablespoon of fat from the pan. Add the onions, bell peppers, and jalapenos and cook, stirring, until very soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and Italian seasoning and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and cool.
• Punch down the dough and divide half. On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the dough to a large rectangle, about 10 by 14 inches. Spread half of the cooled sausage mixture across the dough leaving a 1-inch border. Overlapping slightly, layer half of the ham, pepperoni, olives, provolone and mozzarella cheeses over the top. Using a pastry brush, paint the border of 1 long edge with egg wash. Starting at the opposite long end without egg wash, roll up the dough into a cylinder, pinching the edges to seal. Place on the prepared baking sheet and repeat with the remaining ingredients. Let the dough rise, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Brush the top of each stromboli with egg wash. Bake until nearly completely golden brown and starting to crisp, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle each stromboli with Parmesan cheese and return to the oven until the cheese is melted and the dough is golden brown, about 5 minutes.

• In a large bowl, combine the water, yeast, sugar, and 1 tablespoon oil and stir to combine. Let sit until the mixture is foamy, about 5 minutes.
• Add 1 1/2 cups of the flour and the salt, mixing by hand until it is all incorporated and the mixture is smooth. Continue adding the flour, 1/4 cup at a time, working the dough after each addition, until all the flour is incorporated but the dough is still slightly sticky. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth but still slightly tacky, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Oil a large mixing bowl with the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl and turn to oil all sides. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and set in a warm, draft-free place until nearly doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Use as directed.
