Elle from Feeding My Enthusiasms was the lucky lady to choose our bread for May, and she chose the Stromboli.
The stromboli is a sandwich in every slice - meat and cheese layered on a lovely bread dough, rolled up and baked. The recipe is straightforward to make and the results are delicious.
Our stromboli was layered with proscuitto and salami and swiss cheese and basil. I rolled it up as tight as I could, sprinkled it with salt and baked it.
Unfortunately I forgot the apparently critical step of piercing the bread before cooking, presumably so your bread doesn't bake up hollow like mine did.
Regardless of the big air pockets in the bread, it was delicious. As Elle mentioned in her post to us Babes, this is a perfect picnic food. If the warm weather decides to stick around, maybe we'll find out!
Please visit Elle for the recipe, and all the deets on being a Buddy with her delicious pick. And please visit the participating Babes (listed over on the left) to see their breads as well.
Cheers!
