Pull-Apart Bread with Spinach-Artichoke Dip
Makes 8 to 12 servings
Everyone’s favorite dip wrapped up in store-bought rolls for pulling apart and slathering with the spread.

2 pounds pizza dough, thawed if frozen, at room temperature
Olive oil for the pan and rolls
Dip
1 cup mayonnaise
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, well softened
1½ cups (6 ounces) shredded cheese for pizza or use 1 cup shredded mozzarella, ½ cup shredded unsmoked provolone, and 2 tablespoons grated Romano or Parmesan
One 10-ounce package thawed frozen spinach
One 14-ounce can chopped artichoke hearts, well drained
2 scallions, white and green parts, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano, ground in a Finamil
½ teaspoon dried basil, ground in a Finamil
¼ teaspoon dried garlic chips, ground in a Finamil
⅛ teaspoon crushed hot red pepper flakes
Pink Himalayan salt, ground in a Finamil

About 1 teaspoon flaky or kosher salt for topping

1. Cut the dough into 16 equal pieces and roll each into a smooth ball. (Easiest to do by tucking the sides of the piece of dough underneath to meet in the center, thereby stretching the dough into a ball, and pinching the ends together. ) Lightly oil a 12-inch ovenproof skillet (preferably cast-iron). Place a medium bowl about 6 inches across at the top upside down in the center of the skillet and lightly oil the bowl. Arrange the ball evenly around the bowl. Cover with a moistened kitchen towel and let stand in a warm place (such as a turned-off oven with the door ajar to leave the light on) until the rolls look puffy, about 1½ hours.

2. Make the dip: Whisk the mayonnaise and cream cheese in a large bowl until combined. A handful at a time, squeeze the spinach and artichoke hearts separately to remove excess liquid until quite dry. Add to the bowl. Add the cheese, scallions, oregano, basil, garlic, and hot pepper flakes and stir well with a wooden spoon. Season with salt to taste.

3. Position a rack in the top third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350ºF.

4. Remove the plastic wrap and bowl, leaving the rolls in place. Spread the dip in the center of the skillet and smooth the top. Brush the rolls with oil and sprinkle them with flaky salt. Bake the dip until the rolls are golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes. Serve warm, with a spoon for spreading the dip onto the rolls.

Note: Thaw the spinach any way you wish—let it sit out for a few hours at room temperature, or microwave in a microwave-safe bowl on High for 2 to 3 minutes, breaking it up as it softens.
