Tips:

Choose the right bread: A good stromboli starts with a sturdy bread that can hold up to all the fillings. Italian bread, French bread, or even pizza dough can all be used.
Don't be afraid to experiment with fillings: Stromboli is a versatile dish that can be filled with just about anything you like. Some popular fillings include cheese, pepperoni, sausage, vegetables, and meats.
Make sure to seal the stromboli well: Before baking, be sure to seal the stromboli tightly so that the fillings don't leak out. This can be done by pinching the edges of the dough together or by using a fork to crimp the edges.
Bake the stromboli until it is golden brown: The stromboli is done baking when the crust is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This usually takes about 20-30 minutes.
Let the stromboli cool slightly before slicing: Once the stromboli is out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. This will help to prevent the fillings from spilling out.

Conclusion:

Stromboli is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a party or a weeknight meal. With its endless possibilities for fillings, stromboli is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new dish to try, give stromboli a try. You won't be disappointed!
