Calzone[a][1] is an Italian oven-baked folded pizza.[2][3][4] A typical calzone is made from salted bread dough, baked in an oven and stuffed with prosciutto or salami, mozzarella or ricotta, and Parmesan or pecorino, as well as an egg.[4] Different regional variations in or on a calzone can often include other ingredients that are normally associated with pizza toppings. The term usually applies to an oven-baked folded pizza rather than a fried folded pizza (i.e. panzerotti), although calzones and panzerotti are often mistaken for each other.[5][6][7][8][9]
Stromboli, an Italian-American rolled pizza, is similar to calzone, and the two are sometimes confused.[10][11] Unlike strombolis, which are generally rolled into a cylindrical or rectangular shape, calzones are always folded into a crescent shape, and typically do not have tomato sauce inside.[12]
In Italy

Sandwich-sized calzones are often sold at Italian lunch counters or by street vendors, because they are easy to eat while standing or walking.[13] Fried versions of the calzone are typically filled with tomato and mozzarella; these are made in Apulia and are called "panzerotti".[14]
In Basilicata, a variety of calzone is known as u' pastizz 'rtunnar, which originated between the 18th and 19th century.[15]
