The most amazing fact about Italian food is its simplicity. Basic ingredients are the source of delicious recipes. As long as you have tomatoes or tomato sauce, mozzarella, peperoni, prosciutto, any fish, olives, and pasta, you can make a perfect comfort food, anyway you like it. Anytime.
I do not resist ready-made pastry since it saves time, although, if possible, we prefer making homemade pizza dough.
What is stromboli?
It is a type of pizza crust turnover invented by Italian Americans. Stuffed with cheeses or salami or vegetables. You may use pizza dough or bread dough and roll it out to stuff and fold. So similar to calzone but not the same. Calzone is folded into crescent shape.
