1 tablespoon water

Recipe

Preparation Time:

Cook Time:

Ready Time:

dissolve the sugar in the warm water in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. sprinkle the yeast over the water, and let stand for 5 minutes until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam. stir in the oil, salt, and 2 cups of flour, and mix on low until the mixture forms a wet dough. with the machine running, add 1 cup of flour, 1/4 cup at a time, and knead until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl into a ball. knead for 3 to 5 more minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic.
lightly oil a large bowl, then place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. cover with a light cloth and let rise in a warm place (80 to 95 degrees f (27 to 35 degrees c)) until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
combine the ricotta, mozzarella, and parmesan cheeses, pepperoni, parsley, italian seasoning, olives, green pepper, and mushrooms in a large bowl, and set aside.
preheat oven to 375 degrees f (190 degrees c). line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
punch down the dough, and roll it out into a long, flat strip about 9 inches wide by 30 inches long. spoon the filling mixture down the center of the dough strip, leaving about 1 inch on all sides for sealing. pull edges of the dough together; pinch to seal and form a long, filled roll. place the roll, seam side down, the parchment paper in a snakey "s" shape, and tuck the ends underneath to seal. beat the egg in a bowl with 1 tablespoon of water, and brush the egg wash over the calzone.
