THREE-CHEESE CALZONES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Make the filling: Mix the mozzarella, ricotta, basil, scallions, 1/4 cup parmesan and the breadcrumbs in a medium bowl until combined. Divide the pizza dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll out each piece on a lightly floured surface into a 7-to-8-inch round.
• Spoon one-quarter of the filling onto one half of each dough round, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Lightly brush the edges of the dough with some of the beaten egg; fold the dough over the filling and crimp the edges with a fork to seal. Transfer the calzones to the prepared baking sheet.
• Brush the calzones with the remaining beaten egg and cut 2 slits in the top of each to let steam escape. Sprinkle the calzones with the remaining 2 teaspoons parmesan, then bake until golden brown and cooked through, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve with marinara sauce, the salami and giardiniera.

CALZONE ' BAR'

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F
• On a lightly floured surface, roll out each ball of dough into rounds with 1/6 inch thickness (much like a pizza).
• On one side, add the fillings of your choice.
• Fold over the other side and pinch to close the edges.
• After pinching, roll the edges back to further seal the crust.
• Transfer calzone (careful, don't tear it) to a lightly greased cookie sheet or jelly roll pan.
• Lightly brush the calzones with olive oil or butter (this will help it brown).
• Bake calzones for 15 minutes or until crust is brown all over.
• Serve with a side (for dipping) your favorite canned or homemade red sauce.
