Is calzone dough different from pizza dough?
Calzones Are Made Similarly To Pizza
The pizza dough is stretched, or slapped in the traditional Neapolitan fashion into a disc shape. But here’s where things get a little different. Instead of covering the entire dough with toppings like a pizza, a calzone is only half covered leaving the other side totally plain.
Do calzones have sauce inside?
Calzones usually use a blend of cheese that almost always incorporates ricotta. And then there’s sauce. Calzones never have tomato sauce inside the dough. … While stromboli is also dip-able, it’s totally cool to put some sauce inside stromboli, pre-roll.
