Mom Tips
½ tablet of fresh organic yeast = 7.5 grams
2 level cups (tea) of wheat flour = 220 grams
Preheat the oven to the indicated temperature for about 10 minutes before baking the calzone.
Know that, if coarsely grated, the cheese yields more and covers the filling more evenly than when sliced.
Approximate yield of 4 servings.
