STROMBOLI

Steps:

• Tip the flour into a large bowl, then stir in the yeast and 1 tsp salt. Pour in 250ml warm water and the olive oil, and bring together with a wooden spoon to make a soft dough. Tip onto a surface and knead for 10 mins until smooth. Put the dough back in the bowl, cover with a tea towel and set aside for 40 mins or until doubled in size.
• Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface to a rectangle roughly 35 x 20cm. Layer over the salami (leaving a bit of a border), then scatter over the mozzarella and finally the basil leaves. Tuck the shorter edges in and roll the whole thing up like a swiss roll. Will keep frozen, tightly wrapped in foil, for up to one month. Can either be defrosted and baked, or baked from frozen (see step 3).
• Leave the loaf to rest for 20 mins on a baking tray. Meanwhile, heat the oven to 200C/180C/gas 6. Brush all over with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for 40 mins until puffed up and golden. If cooking from frozen, bake for 1 hr. Leave to cool for 10 mins before slicing and serving with salad.

BEST STROMBOLI

Steps:

• Combine 1/4 warm water, yeast and sugar in a large bowl and stir to dissolve. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in remaining warm water olive oil and salt. Gradually add 1 1/2 - 2 cups flour, mixing until smooth. Gradually add enough remaining flour until you have a smooth dough that comes away from the bowl. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead 10 minutes, working in more flour as needed. Shape into a ball, place in a greased bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let dough rise until doubled, about 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 375°F and grease a large baking sheet (if you have a pizza or bread stone in your oven you can forego the baking sheet and bake the stromboli directly on the stone).
• Punch dough down and cut in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll each dough half into a rectangle about 10" x 8". Arrange fillings over dough as shown in, finishing with a sprinkling of Parmesan, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder. Roll the dough much like you would if you were making a jelly roll. Pinch the edges of the seam and tuck the ends under.
• Cut long diagonal slashes, about 1/2 inch deep, along the top of the loaf every 3 inches or so. Brush top of loaf with beaten egg, avoiding the area in the slashes. Sprinkle with poppy or sesame seeds if desired. Bake for about 30 minutes or until bread is golden brown. Cool slightly before cutting and serving, or if you prefer to eat your stromboli cold, cool completely on a wire rack before wrapping and refrigerating. Can be served with pizza sauce or different sauces for dipping!
