    1/2   c            Romano Cheese -- grated
  1       tb           Parsley -- chopped
    1/2   ts           Salt
    1/4   ts           Pepper
                       -----TOPPING-----
 15       sl           Salami -- thinly sliced
 25                    Basil Leaves -- coarsely
                       -chopped
 16       oz           Roasted Red Peppers -- drained
 12       sl           Provolone Cheese -- thinly

                       Salt
                       Pepper

 Place all dough ingredients in pan and program for
 knead and first rise. The dough will be firm and pull
 away from the side of the machine. While the dough is
 rising, prepare the filling.  In mixing bowl, whisk
 together all the ingredients and refrigerate until you
 are ready to assemble the pizza. Preheat the oven to
 400°F. with the rack in the center position. Grease a
 9" springform pan.

 When the dough cycle is completed transfer the dough
 to a lightly floured work surface, cover it with a
 clean towel, and let it rest for 5 minutes. Cut the
 dough in 2 pieces; one piece should be one third of
 the dough and the other piece should be 2/3.  Roll out
 the larger piece to a 14" circle. Line the springform
 pan with the circle. A small amount of dough (1")
 should overlap the top of the pan. Arrange 5 slices of
 salami on the bottom. Spread a third of the ricotta
 filling over the salami, then sprinkle on a third of
 the basil. Lay out a third of the peppers. Lay out 4
 slices of provolone.  Repeat this pattern for the next
 2 layers. Roll out the small piece of dough to a 9"
 circle. Brush water around the rim of the dough
 already in pan, then fit the 9" circle on top. Trim
 away about 1/2" of the overlapping dough from the
 bottom circle. Crimp together the top and bottom
 edges.  Brush the top of the dough with olive oil and
 salt and pepper. With a pair of scissors, cut a vent
 in the top crust about 1" in diameter. Bake for 15
 minutes at 400°F., then at 350°F. for 15 minutes.
 Remove the pizza from the oven and immediately remove
 the sides of the springform. Cool before slicing to
 allow layers to set.
