Equipment
- Baking sheet
- Rolling Pin
- Pastry brush
Ingredients
- 1 recipe Basic Pizza Dough at room temperature
- 2 ounces thinly sliced deli salami
- 2 ounces thinly sliced deli capicola
- 2 ounces thinly sliced deli provolone cheese
- ¼ cup jarred roasted red peppers rinsed, patted dry, and sliced thin
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large egg beaten with 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- Kosher salt optional
Ham and Cheddar Variation:
- 4 ounces thinly sliced deli ham replaces salami and capicola
- 2 ounces thinly sliced deli cheddar replaces provolone
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1 small dill pickle cut into matchsticks and patted dry (replaces red peppers)
- Omit Parmesan
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Set your oven rack to the middle and preheat to 400°F. Lightly grease a rimmed baking sheet with vegetable oil spray.
- Shape the Dough: On a floured surface, roll out the pizza dough into a 10 by 7½-inch rectangle, keeping it about ¼ inch thick with the longer side facing you.
- Layer the Filling: Spread salami, capicola, and provolone across the dough, leaving a ¾-inch border. Add roasted red peppers and sprinkle Parmesan on top. Brush the edge with the egg wash.
- Roll and Seal: Starting with the long side, roll the dough snugly into a log shape. Pinch the seam and ends to seal it completely. Place seam side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Finish and Bake: Brush the top with the remaining egg wash. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and, if desired, a bit of salt. Loosely cover with greased aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove foil and continue baking for about 20 minutes more, rotating the pan halfway through, until the crust is golden.
- Cool and Serve: Transfer the baked stromboli to a wire rack. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- The dough should be at room temperature to roll out easily.
- For the Ham and Cheddar Stromboli, apply mustard over the ham before topping with cheddar, then proceed as directed.
- Serve warm with a side of your favorite tomato or marinara sauce for dipping.
