Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 3 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • A pinch of salt
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup butter

Filling Ingredients:

  • 3 cloves garlic crushed
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 5 oz ham
  • 5 oz salami
  • 5 oz pepperoni
  • Herbs like dill oregano, basil or rosemary

Instructions
 

  • Mix together yeast with sugar, warm milk, and 3 tablespoons of flour in a bowl. Let sit for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, add the egg, salt, remaining flour, and melted butter.
  • Once the dough has risen, pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Take the dough out of the bowl and place it on a baking mat or parchment paper. 
  • Roll out the dough into a rectangle on the mat or parchment paper.
  • Knead the dough, and add a little flour as needed if the dough seems too liquidy. If the dough is sticky, you can put some oil on your hands.
  • Leave the dough to rise in a warm place for 40 minutes, and cover with a towel.
  • Mix together half the butter and the crushed garlic. Brush the dough with half the melted butter mixed with the crushed garlic.
  • Sprinkle the dough rectangle liberally with half the grated mozzarella. Evenly spread the ham slices on top of the cheese.
  • Layer the salami and pepperoni on top of the ham. Sprinkle with the other half of the mozzarella.
  • Roll the dough on the long sides into a roll. There will be dough in the middle. Pinch the ends and the back closed. Make sure the stromboli is seam side down.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the other half of the melted butter with Parmesan and herbs.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut slits diagonally across the top of the dough. Brush the butter herb mixture liberally over the stromboli.
  • Move the stromboli on the baking mat or parchment paper onto the baking sheet or baking pan. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • Slice and serve with a side of homemade pizza sauce or marinara sauce.
