Calzone Stuffed With Chicory And Olives Food

EASY CALZONE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 °F. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it with oil.
• Divide the dough into 8 equally sized pieces. Roll each piece into a 1/4" thick circle.
• Place the filling on half of each circle (pizza sauce, ricotta, pepperoni, salami and shredded mozzarella). Make sure to leave the edges clean to allow for sealing the calzone. Fold the side over the filling and crimp the edges.
• Place calzones on a baking sheet, leaving space apart. Cut a small vent on the top of each calzone. Brush the tops with oil and sprinkle with parmesan cheese. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.

STUFFED CALZONES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F.
• Lightly grease 2 jellyroll pans.
• Place dough onto lightly floured surface.
• Divide into 4 equal pieces; shape each into ball into a 7-inch circle.
• Divide and spread pizza sauce evenly over each circle.
• Evenly disburse the cheese and ham between the circles leaving a 1/2" around the edge.
• Fold circles in half and press edges with tines of a fork.
• Arrange 2 calzones on each prepared pan; prick top with fork.
• Bake 18-20 minutes switching pans halfway through, until lightly browned.

CALZONE

Steps:

• Place water, salt, bread flour, dry milk, sugar, and yeast in the pan of the bread machine in the order suggested by the manufacturer. Select Dough cycle.
• After cycle ends, roll out dough on a lightly floured surface; shape into a 16 x 10 inch rectangle. Transfer to a lightly greased cookie sheet. In a small bowl, mix together chopped pepperoni and mozzarella. Spoon pizza sauce in a stripe down the center of dough lengthwise; add sausage and cheese filling. Make diagonal cuts 1 1/2 inches apart down each side, cutting within a 1/2 inch of the filling. Criss cross strips over filling, sealing with water. Brush top with melted butter.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 35 to 45 minutes.

CALZONE STUFFED WITH CHICORY AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Combine the garlic, 1 tablespoon olive oil, anchovies, capers, vinegar and olives in a large saucepan. Cook over low heat until soft. Add the escarole, toss well, cover and braise, about 40 minutes.
• Pour the warm water into a large mixing bowl. Add the yeast and gently stir the water with a fork until the yeast dissolves.
• Combine 1 3/4 cups flour with the salt. Slowly add the flour mixture to the dissolved yeast. Add the yogurt and continue to mix the ingredients until the dough becomes soft and sticky. Sprinkle a small handful of flour onto a flat surface. Knead the dough until smooth, about 5 minutes, adding flour as needed to prevent sticking.
• Brush the inside of a large bowl with the remaining olive oil. Place the dough in the bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Put the bowl in a warm place and let dough rise until double in volume, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Punch the dough to release the air, re-form it into a ball, cover the bowl with the plastic wrap and let it rise for another hour.
• Divide the dough evenly into 12 balls. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Sprinkle a handful of flour onto a flat surface. Using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a thin disk, about 1/8 inch thick and 4 inches in diameter, adding more flour when necessary to prevent sticking.
• Lightly dust 2 baking sheets with cornmeal. Place 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of filling on the lower half of each circle, leaving a 1/2-inch border all around. Fold the top half of the circle over the mixture. Then fold the border over and crimp the edges with your fingers. Put the calzone on the baking sheets. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
