This is a very rich and tasty bread. It’s very appreciated at parties, since it can be eaten without a plate or a fork and it tastes better than regular bread. Very much appreciated by children (my advice is to avoid pepper if you will serve it to the little ones). Read more . I made it for Easter and brought it to my sister in law, we had it as an appetizer and snacked with it during the day. My husband family loved it! Ingredients:
for the dough |
• 500 grams multipurpose bleached flour |
• 150 grams of lard or shortening (lard is tastier but not so healthy. crisco does well enough) |
• 1 teaspoon of yeast (i buy the one pound instant dry yeast at sam’s club as i bake our own bread at least twice a week) |
• 3 eggs |
• 80 grams of parmigiano or pecorino grated |
• salt and pepper |
• milk as needed |
for the filling |
• 300 grams of provolone cheese cut in little pieces (you can mix some parmigiano or pecorino in if you like it richer) |
• 100 grams of low fat bacon cut in little pieces |
• 100 grams of bologna cut in little pieces |
• 100 grams of salame cut in little pieces |
Directions:
1. Mix the flour with the grated cheese, the eggs, the shortening and 100 grams of warm milk in which you have previously dissolved the yeast, add warm milk until it reaches the consistency of bread dough. knead the dough till it becomes smooth .Flatten the dough on a table like a big pizza (it needs to be half an inch thick). On top of it spread the provolone, the bacon, the bologna and salame then roll the dough tightly. With the dough roll create a big donut and place it in a buttered pan, I usually use the pan with the hole in the middle. Let it raise in the fridge overnight. Bake it in a preheated oven at 180 C ( 350 F) for about 40 minutes, until the surface browns.
2. You can serve it warm or at room temperature.
