Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 (1 pound) loaf frozen bread dough, thawed

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, or to taste

  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano

  • 1 teaspoon dried basil

  • 16 slices mortadella

  • 12 slices provolone cheese

  • 12 thin slices capicola ham

  • 12 slices Genoa salami

  • 1 ½ cups sliced Roma tomatoes (Optional)

  • 1 ½ cups thinly sliced fresh mushrooms (Optional)

  • 1 egg, beaten

  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (Optional)

Directions

  1. Place dough in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, 45 minutes to 1 hour.

  2. Roll dough into a 17x20-inch rectangle about 1/4-inch thick on a large piece of parchment paper. Brush olive oil over dough; sprinkle basil and oregano on top. Layer mortadella, provolone cheese, capicola ham, Genoa salami, tomatoes, and mushrooms over dough.

  3. Roll dough lengthwise into a log. Brush the top with beaten egg; sprinkle sesame seeds on top. Transfer to a baking sheet. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise until puffy, about 30 minutes.

  4. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
