About Folded pizza

Folded Pizza, often referred to as calzone, is a savory dish originating from Italian cuisine, specifically Naples. It consists of pizza dough folded over a filling, which typically includes mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce, and a variety of optional ingredients such as pepperoni, vegetables, or ricotta. The edges are sealed, creating a self-contained pocket that is baked until golden and crispy. While calzones share the flavors of traditional pizza, the enclosed design helps retain moisture and meld flavors. From a nutritional perspective, Folded Pizza can be a satisfying meal but varies widely in healthfulness depending on preparation. Its dough provides carbohydrates, while the cheese offers protein and calcium. However, high-fat cheeses and processed meats can increase calorie and sodium content. Choosing vegetable fillings or lean proteins can make it a more balanced option. Moderation and mindful ingredient choices are key for enjoying this Italian staple as part of a healthy diet.
