I got this DELICIOUS recipe from my boss at work. We are always doing carry-in's here, and this one is requested always. I made it once for a family dinner, and know everyone asks "Are you bringing that yummy bread?". A friend tried this recipe adding in sliced sandwich ham. I don't recommend this as it makes it too salty.

SERVES 4 -6 , 1 loaf (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf frozen bread dough (can be found in frozen bread section)
  • 8 slices of sandwich pepperoni
  • 4 slices hard salami
  • 4 slices of sandwich size provolone cheese
  • 4 slices of sandwich size mozzarella cheese
  • 1 package Good Seasonings Italian salad dressing mix (dry)
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine

  2. 2
    2 hours.
  3. 3
    Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
  4. 4
    Using a pair of kitchen scissors, cut into dough creating an open seem down through the length of the loaf.
  5. 5
    Cutting the other direction, cut"shoe string like" incision all the way down on each side.
  6. 6
    Stretch these out by pulling on the"shoe strings".
  7. 7
    Layer pepperoni, salami, and cheeses in the center of the loaf.
  8. 8
    Take"shoe string" from one side, and tie it in a knot with the"shoe string" on the other side.
  9. 9
    Do this with all the"shoe strings" all the way down the loaf.
  10. 10
    This creates an almost braided look to the bread.
  11. 11
    Set aside Melt butter/margarine in the microwave.
  12. 12
    Once melted, mix the Good Seasons italian mix in with the butter with a wisk.
  13. 13
    Pour this mixture over the bread.
  14. 14

Wow, this was really good! So there would be cheese on both top & bottom of the meat, I layered the provelone slices, then pepperoni, sliced part of a chub of Italian dry salami, then covered with shredded mozzarella. The butter ran over the sides & down into the pan. It sizzled & created a wonderfully crisp bottom crust. I seldom use frozen dough so next time will probably try it with homemade bread dough & probably will use a little less butter. And if it is up to my DH, 'next time' will be soon. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
