Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (454g) Pizza Dough
  • 1 tbsp All-purpose flour
  • 4 oz (115g) Sliced Pepperoni
  • 2 cups (225g) Shredded Low-Moisture Mozzarella Cheese
  • 1 tsp Dried Oregano
  • 4 tbsp (56g) Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 2 cloves Garlic, finely minced
  • 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Prep the station. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line your baking sheet with parchment. Note: Preheating is vital for that immediate oven spring that makes dough fluffy.
  2. Stretch the dough. Dust your surface with the 1 tbsp of flour and roll the 1 lb of dough into a 12x10 inch rectangle. Note: If it snaps back, let it rest for 5 minutes and try again.
  3. Layer the cheese. Sprinkle 2 cups of mozzarella evenly, leaving that 1 inch border at the top. Note: This border acts as the glue when you seal the roll.
  4. Add the spice. Top with the 4 oz of pepperoni and sprinkle the 1 tsp of oregano over the meat. The oregano smells incredible as it hits the warm dough.
  5. The Tension Roll. Start rolling from the long edge closest to you. Keep it tight! Note: A loose roll leads to cheese volcanoes where everything leaks out.
  6. Seal and slice. Pinch that seam shut. Use a pizza cutter to divide the log into 12 even breadsticks and place them on the pan.
  7. First Butter Brush. Mix the 4 tbsp of melted butter with the minced garlic and parsley. Brush exactly half of it over the tops. Until they are glistening and coated.
  8. The Bake. Slide them into the oven for 15 minutes. Bake until the crust is a deep golden brown and the cheese is visible and bubbling.
  9. The Final Touch. Remove from the oven and immediately brush with the rest of the garlic butter. Note: The residual heat cooks the parsley just enough to release its oils.
  10. The Garnish. Sprinkle the 1/4 cup of Parmesan and 1/2 tsp of sea salt over the top while the butter is still wet so it sticks.
