Calzone[a][1] is an Italian oven-baked turnover, made with leavened dough.[2][3] It originated in Naples in the 18th century.[4] A typical calzone is made from salted bread dough, baked in an oven and stuffed with prosciutto or salami, mozzarella or ricotta, and Parmesan or pecorino, as well as an egg.[4] Different regional variations in or on a calzone can often include other ingredients that are normally associated with pizza toppings. The term usually applies to an oven-baked turnover rather than a fried pastry (i.e. panzerotti), although calzones and panzerotti are often mistaken for each other.[5][6][7][8][9]
Stromboli, an Italian-American pizza turnover, is similar to calzone, and the two are sometimes confused.[10][11] Unlike strombolis, which are generally rolled or folded into a cylindrical or rectangular shape, calzones are always folded into a crescent shape, and typically do not contain tomato sauce inside.[12]
