Bridgeford Pepperoni Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to a 10 x 15 inch rectangle.
• Set aside.
• In a medium size bowl, mix together cream cheese and Parmesan.
• Add Bridgford, Pepperoni, olives, onion and garlic.
• Mix well.
• Spread evenly over dough.
• Roll up dough tightly in jelly-roll fashion.
• Seal seams and edges.
• Cut roll into 30, 1/2 inch slices.
• Place slices swirl-side up on greased baking sheet.
• Bake in a preheated 375° oven for 12-15 minutes.
• Remove from oven and pan to cool on wire rack.

Steps:

• Dissolve sugar, yeast, salt in the warm water.
• Stir in the flour, using extra flour or water as needed to make a soft dough that isn't too sticky.
• Turn out onto a floured board and knead for a couple of minutes. Shape into a ball and let raise in a bowl for 30 minutes to an hour, covered with a towel. Volume should double.
• Turn the raised dough back onto the floured board, and cut it into 12 pieces (I use a scraper/cutter, but a knife works fine.).
• Take each piece, flatten it lightly on the board with your hand, and place 4-5 slices of pepperoni in the middle, overlapping but not stacked.
• Add cheese.
• Roll it up like a jelly roll, and then crimp it with your fingers to seal the ends into an oval, with no pepperoni sticking out. Place on an ungreased baking sheet with at least an inch between each one.
• Beat in an egg and add a tablespoonful of water. Brush rolls lightly with this glaze. You don't need to let the rolls raise further, but you can if you want to.
• Bake rolls at 425 degrees until golden brown.

Steps:

• Cut pepperoni slices into strips.
• Combine pepperoni, cheese, lettuce, carrot, radishes, red onion and tomatoes in a large bowl. Blend together dressing and mustard. Pour over pepperoni mixture. Mix well.
• Cut the end off of each roll. Hollow out the roll leaving a roll shell. (you can reserve the centers for bread crumbs).
• Divide pepperoni mixture evenly among the rolls. Replace tops. Wrap well and refrigerate several hours.
• Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes before serving.
