Spinach Stromboli

Ingredients 

Pizza Dough

  • 3 1/2 cups hot water
  • 1 Tablespoon salt
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons active dry yeast
  • 7 cups flour may need to add up to 9
  • 2 teaspoons dough enhancer

Spinach Filling

  • 24 ounces fresh spinach
  • 4 green onions finely chopped
  • 3 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup shredded provolone cheese
  • 1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 4 Tablespoons olive oil
  • parsley
  • 2 garlic cloves minced

Creamy Garlic Sauce

  • 4 Tablespoons butter
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 1/4 cups milk

Instructions

Spinach Filling

  • Sauté spinach, garlic and onions in olive oil. Add seasonings to taste. Mix cheeses with spinach, then fill dough as directed above

Pizza Dough

  • Preheat your baking Stone to 500. Combine all ingredients in mixing bowl and knead for eight minutes. (A Kitchen Aid or Bosch work best.) Divide dough into five or six sections depending on how big you like your Stromboli. Roll into circles and place spinach mixture onto the center of the dough. Roll up and place the seam on the bottom. Make four slits on the top using scissors to snip. Bake eight to ten minutes. Brush with garlic butter when you take them out.

Creamy Garlic Sauce

  • Melt 1 Tablespoon of the butter in a pan, add the chopped onions and cook gently until soft and golden. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add the wine, turn up the heat and reduce the volume by about half. Remove from heat.
  • In another pan melt the remaining butter. Add the flour, stir and cook for about five minutes. Now add the milk. To do this well, take it slowly. Add just a little milk, stir well, then a little more. As you add the remaining milk, keep stirring. The sauce should become nice and thick. Finally, mix in the onion and garlic you prepared earlier.
  • Serve warm.
