I couldn’t just make strombolis with the boli dough I made last night - I had to try a Calzone as well! Here are the ingredients:

Dough:
1 1/4 c - Water (Luke warm)
1 tsp - Sugar
2 tsp - Salt
2 T - Olive Oil
3 c - Hi-Gluten Flour
1 tsp - Active Dry Yeast

Filling:
1/2 c - Bill’s Neapolitan Sauce
6 oz - Ricotta cheese
1/4 c - Grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp - black pepper
4 slices - deli ham
4 slices - Provolone cheese
1/2 c - Mozzarella cheese

Crust Glaze:
1 egg, beaten

I rolled the dough into a circle as I would for pizza, but I only spread sauce on half of the blank. I then mixed the ricotta, Parmesan, and pepper in a bowl and spread it on top of the sauce about 3/4 inches thick. This was topped with two slices of provolone and a handful of mozzarella. Finally, 4 slices of deli ham where sliced into strips and layered over the cheese. The dough was then folded over and pinched along the edge. I used the back of a fork to crimp the rim after pinching and cut 4 small vent holes in the top crust. A beaten egg was brushed over the calzone and it was placed on a stone set on the middle oven rack at 450 degrees for about 15 minutes.

This calzone was incredible! We couldn’t even wait for it to cool down before serving it. I think next time I will try a bit more sauce, but we used a bowl of sauce to dip anyway which was fine. I must say that even though it was my first calzone, I can’t think of a way to make it any better! I will be adding this to my menu for sure!
