Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Step 2

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add the flour, eggs, 2 tablespoons olive oil and kosher salt to taste. Mix on low speed until a dough begins to form. Increase speed to medium-high and knead for 5 minutes or until smooth.

Step 3

Wrap in plastic wrap and leave out to rest for 30 minutes.

Step 4

Coat the interior of a Dutch oven with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Unwrap dough and dust with flour.

Step 5

On a well-floured work surface, roll out dough into one large disc, about 1/8 inch thick. Roll dough around the rolling pin, and unroll into the Dutch oven, carefully pressing down to the bottom, making sure there is still about 6 inches or more hanging outside the vessel.

Step 6

Start filling your Timpano with a layer of cooked pasta tossed in a small amount of sauce. Begin forming layers using half of each of the fillings: eggs, then meatballs, cheeses, and salami.

Step 7

Repeat, starting with the pasta every time, until the Timpano is filled to the brim. Finish with a final layer of aged provolone. Carefully fold the excess dough up from the sides and press down on the top to seal shut.

Step 8

Cover the Dutch oven and bake for 1 1/2 hours. For a crispier crust, bake uncovered.

Step 9

Let the Timpano rest in the pan for one hour, then place a large cutting board over top of the Dutch oven and invert. Cut into slices, like you would a cake. Serve with a spoonful of marinara sauce.
