Stromboli

Some have requested the recipe for the Stromboli Matt Gerald brought to the luncheon yesterday and here it is.

The only change I've made to the original recipe is to substitute olive oil for vegetable oil. I also used a bread machine with 4 cups of flour to make the dough. You may need to add a little more water if the dough is too thick. If you use a bread machine, keep an eye on the dough and poke it down occasionally so it doesn't run over.

STROMBOLI

DOUGH:

1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast
1-1/3 cups warm water (110°-115°)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 to 5 cups all-purpose flour

FILLING:

3 tablespoons prepared mustard
12 slices process American cheese
12 slices hard salami
1- 1/2 pounds ground beef, browned and drained
1/2 pound thinly sliced cooked ham
4 cups (16 ounces) shredded mozzarella cheese
Olive oil
Oregano to taste

Dissolve yeast in water in a large bowl. Add oil, salt and flour. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 45 minutes. Divide dough in half; roll one half into a 15-in. x 12-in. rectangle. Spread half of rectangle with half of mustard. Over mustard, layer six slices of cheese and salami, and half of the beef, ham and mozzarella. Fold plain half of dough over filling and seal ends well. Brush with oil and sprinkle with oregano. Repeat with other half of dough and remaining filling ingredients. Bake at 400ยบ for 25 - 30 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly before cutting into 1-in. slices. Yield: about 16 servings.
