About this dish

Ham and low-moisture mozzarella are rolled up inside pizza dough, so each slice shows a spiral of bread and filling.

No tomato sauce goes inside. Melted cheese does not mean it is done: if the dough in the middle is still damp, it needs more time, and 93°C at the center is the mark to aim for.

Instructions

5 steps
  1. 1

    Cover refrigerated dough and rest at room temperature 30 minutes.

    Preheat to 205°C and line a sheet pan with parchment. Blot the ham and shred or thinly slice the cheese.

  2. 2

    Dust lightly with flour and roll to 25×40 cm.

    Spread melted butter mixed with minced garlic and parsley. Layer ham and cheese, leaving 7 cm bare along one long edge and 2.5 cm at the other edges.

  3. 3

    Beat egg with water and brush the bare edges.

    Roll from the opposite long side into a 40 cm log, tucking in the ends and pinching the seam closed.

  4. 4

    Transfer seam-side down and brush lightly with egg wash.

    Cut four 3 cm vents on top and bake 25-30 minutes until golden and at least 93°C at the center. Discard unused egg wash.

  5. 5

    Rest on the pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a board and cut into 8 slices.

Tips

If the dough keeps shrinking, cover and rest another 10 minutes before stretching again; add this to the preparation time.
