Kosher calzones were not available in Montreal when I was growing up. Pizza shops sold pizza, falafel, fries, and, of course, poutines. We didn’t have any of the special extra stuff. The first time I tasted a calzone, I had gone out for lunch with a camp friend in a Brooklyn pizza shop. I fell in love with them immediately!  

Yield: 6 calzones

Ingredients

Dough

Filling

  • 2 cups shredded cheese

  • 1 egg, beaten (optional)

Directions

Prepare the Dough

1.

In a bowl, combine water and yeast. Mix and add flour and oil. Knead until a nice dough forms. Allow to rise for 20–30 minutes.

Tips:

You can always use one frozen pizza dough instead.

Prepare the Calzones

1.

Divide dough into six equal balls and roll each one out to a seven-inch circle. Place spinach mixture on half of each circle. Top with cheese. Fold dough over and pinch closed with a fork. Smear with egg wash (optional).

2.

Bake at 500 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes.

dough is very sticky. Is the flour to water ratio correct?
