Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Easy To Make Stromboli
- add review
- #17065
Stromboli is a Philadelphia favorite that is similar to a calzone. It's essentially pizza toppings baked inside a pizza dough pocket. This version is made the easy way by using frozen bread dough instead of making pizza dough from scratch. You can easily alter the filling ingredients to suit your tastes. These sandwiches also freeze great. Simply bake them for 30 minutes instead of an hour, then freeze. When ready to bake them simply remove from the freezer and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F.

ingredients
1 loaf frozen bread dough, thawed
1 pound sliced boiled or spicy ham
1/2 pound sliced Genoa salami
1/2 pound sliced pepperoni
3 pounds shredded Mozzarella cheese
1 jar (26 ounce size) meatless pasta sauce or your own homemade
directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Divide the thawed bread dough in half. Flatten each half into a rectangle using a rolling pin.
Place the sliced ham in rows, slightly overlapping, on the dough leaving a slight border. Top with the sliced salami and pepperoni in the same pattern.
Sprinkle the shredded Mozzarella over the top. Drizzle a little of the pasta sauce over the cheese.
Carefully roll the dough up lengthwise. Seal all edges so the filling will not seep out during cooking. Poke 1-2 holes in the top with a skewer (only pierce the top layer of dough).
Place the strombolis on a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for about an hour or until crusty brown.
While the strombolis are baking, heat the remaining pasta sauce to serve as a dipping sauce.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

We really like stromboli but I can not work with the bread dough. It's like wrestling with a demon. It sticks to everything and doesn't hold its shape. I greased my hands and stretched it out on a silicone mat, after I threw two out because they stuck and would not roll. Any hints on how to work with this stuff would be appreciated. Good recipe though.
The dough shouldn't be that hard to work with. Maybe try a different brand of frozen dough?

I was surprised that this took a full hour to bake, I was prepared to pull it out far earlier than that but it did take an hour. I followed the suggestion that said to use an egg wash and poke holes and was glad I did. I didn't try freezing this but I like the idea of having them in the freezer to just heat up and have on hand.

I made this with bread dough, but it wasn't a heck of a lot different than a hot pocket. The next time around I used pizza dough. You can buy it ready made, but I prefer to make my own using a recipe I found at: [no urls permitted] For stromboli, I eliminate the semolina flour because it makes the crust to hard. One thing to note, you can use just about any ingredients you want in this recipe and simply follow the rest of the directions. My baking time was right at 1 hour. Make sure to use the egg wash and to poke a few holes in the top to let the steam escape, or it will find it's own way out, usually giving you a disaster.
