Recipe Talk

Howdy,
I'm looking for a bread recipe that my husband used to eat when he was overseas in the military. It was a bread with pepperoni (and or a salami) that was made like a jelly(?) roll. It could either be an Asian or Italian style of bread. Any help would be appreciated. (He's the one to bake it..) Thanks

1 loaf frozen bread dough or
your own bread dough

Thaw bread dough. Roll out in a 12-inch round. Place a

layer of pepperoni on round. Place a layer of Swiss cheese on,

then top with Mozzarella cheese. Roll like a jelly roll and

pinch ends together. Let rise 1/2 hour. Then bake at 350 degrees

about 1 hour.

Punch down dough, divide into 3 equal pieces. On a

lightly floured surface with lightly greased hands, roll each

piece into a 14 x 3-inch rectangle. Sprinkle each rectangle

with 1/2 cup of pepperoni. Roll up jelly roll fashion to make

14-inch rope. Place ropes along side each other on prepared

baking sheet and braid. Pinch ends. Cover with clean dish

towel and let rise about 45 minutes. Bake at 375 degrees for 25 to 30

Aunt Jen's Pepperoni Bread

Meat stromboli (stuffed bread)

Categories: Breads Italian Sausage

1 servings

1 pk Yeast, dry
2 ts Sugar

⅓ c Water, warm (105 degrees F)

4 c Flour, unbleached

3 tb Butter, in pieces

1 ts Salt

1 c Ice water, without cubes

1/4 lb Genoa salami, sliced

1/4 lb Provolone cheese, sliced

1 c Sweet pepper slices, roasted

1/4 lb Pepperoni, wide, sliced

1/4 lb Mozzarella cheese, sliced

2 tb Butter, melted

Poppy seeds (I use sesame seeds)

SALLIE'S NOTES: I made this, substituting about
3 or 4 Tablespoons sun-dried tomatoes (in oil, drained) for the roasted peppers. It wasd unbelievably delicious!

Preheat oven to 200 degrees for 15 minutes and turn off. Combine yeast, sugar and warm water in a small mixing bowl.

Set aside for 5 minutes until foamy. In the workbowl of a food processor, add flour, butter pieces and salt. Process for 20 seconds. Add ice water to yeast.

With the processor running, add yeast-water mixture gradually, until all of the moisture is absorbed and the dough leaves the side of the bowl.

Process for an additional 60 seconds. Transfer dough from the workbowl to a large greased mixing bowl. Cover with a kitchen towel and place in warm off oven. Allow to rise until doubled, approximately 1 1/2 hours. Once doubled, punch down dough and transfer to a floured rolling surface.

With quick, hard strokes, roll dough into a large rectangle, approximately 1/2 inch thick.

Layer the meats, roast peppers and cheeses evenly down the center leaving approximately three inches of exposed dough on either side.

With a sharp knife, slice the exposed dough into 1 inch wide fingers, leaving approximately 1/2 inch surrounding the meat. Alternating side to side, overlap the dough fingers over the meat to create a braided loaf. Pinch the ends to seal.

Tranfer to a large cookie sheet, cover with a kitchen towel and return to the warmed oven.

Allow to rise until doubled, approximately 45 minutes. Brush loaf with melted butter and sprinkle with poppy seeds. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until loaf is well browned and hollow sounding when thumped.
