A calzone (Italian "stocking" or "trouser" or "drooping sack" or "hanging fold"[1]), sometimes referred to as an italian sac,[citation needed] is an Italian turnover made from pizza dough and stuffed with cheese (usually mozzarella cheese and Ricotta, but some varieties contain Parmesan, Provolone, or a locally substituted cheese), ham or salami, vegetables, or a variety of other stuffings. It often contains an egg, the yolk of which should be runny. It is typically served with marinara sauce on the side for dipping, or topped with garlic and parsley infused olive oil. The dough is folded over, sealed on one edge, salted, then fried.
In Italian the word has three syllables, IPA: [kalˈtsone]. Pronunciations of the word in English vary greatly, with British English speakers saying [kal'tsəʊni] or [kal'zəʊni][2], and American English speakers saying any of [kal'soʊnɛ], [kæl'zoʊni], [kæl'zoʊneɪ], or [kæl'zoʊn][3][2].
Calzones are similar to stromboli, but traditionally the two are distinct dishes, as stromboli usually contains mozzarella cheese and is served with marinara sauce on the side. Moreover, stromboli is rolled to resemble a loaf, whereas a calzone is folded to resemble a semicircle.
