I don't know if any of you folks caught my post in the Veranda about pepperoni rolls, this is how they came out. I won't bore you with the dough making...suffice it to say I used a cup of fed sourdough starter, 1.75 cups filtered water, 5 cups flour, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 tablespoon sugar and 2 teaspoons of active yeast. Mixed it, proofed for 2 hours, then turned the dough out on my board and cut it into 16 pieces.  Then I flattened out the dough into oblong pieces, and laid the pepperoni slices on top. At this point I decided to also put in some shredded mozzarella to take it up a notch.   Folded them up sort of like a burrito and pinched the seam shut, then put them on parchment paper on a sheet pan. Then I covered them with a towel and gave them a second proof of about an hour before popping them in the oven. Baked them at 400°F for about 25 minutes (until internal temp hit 200°F, and took them out to cool on a wire rack.  As you can see...the pepperoni renders a bit of fat that permeates the roll and gives it a wonderful flavor that you'll never forget. I thought these came out great! Next batch I might add some chopped olives as well. Thanks for looking! ------------- Go ahead...play with your food! |

Looks fantastic! (And it looks like something that a novice cook like myself could handle, too.) ------------- Melissa http://carpelibris.wordpress.com/ - http://carpelibris.wordpress.com/ |
