Stuffed Calzones Two Ways

Free 5 Year Warranty Guarantee. Register Your Products Here.
One of the most loved pizza styles, a calzone – that deliciously sealed and stuffed portable pizza – often begins, for home pizza makers, as a pizza that didn't quite make it. And while it’s a great way to recover a seemingly failed pizza, calzones don’t only have to happen by mistake. If you want to add some variety to your pizza game while impressing guests with that surprise first bite of a tasty calzone filled with savoury ingredients, Calabria, Italy-based Ooni ambassadors, Cristiana and Giuliano of @vuoiassaggiare, have you covered with not one, but two options.
From creamy ricotta and provolone cheese to savoury ground beef and ham to fresh basil, these calzones are basically hand-held gourmet meals. For their calzones, Cristina and Giuliano like to begin with a biga – a type of Italian dough starter. Biga dough has a low hydration, which means it uses less water, leading to a slower fermentation, firmer texture and nutty flavour, the perfect compliment for your favourite fillings. For this recipe, they baked their calzones with a wood-fired Karu 16 oven for that unmistakable wood-fired aroma. You can also use any Ooni oven for this recipe. Now, get ready to make a calzone so good, you might just have to make another.
