BROCCOLI POTATO CALZONE

Steps:

• Load ingredients for pizza dough into ABM per your manufacturer's instructions.
• Set on dough cycle.
• Remove when dough has completed second kneading.
• While dough is being processed, make calzone filling: Place peeled and diced potatoes in saucepan with desired amount of Kosher salt and steam just until tender (can be pierced easily with a fork).
• As soon as potatoes are tender, drain thoroughly and return to saucepan to "dry out" for a couple of minutes.
• Then, while still HOT, add lemon juice, basil, oregano, and garlic.
• While potatoes are steaming, place broccoli pieces in a wide saucepan.
• Sprinkle with Kosher salt to taste.
• Use a measuring cup to drizzle HOT water over top of broccoli, just enough to cover the bottom of the pan.
• Cover TIGHTLY.
• When water begins to boil, immediately turn off heat, without raising lid, and broccoli will finish cooking.
• Allow broccoli to steam for about 10 minutes.
• When bread machine completes second kneading, remove dough and divide into 2 pieces, one slightly larger than the other.
• Roll the larger piece to fit the shape of your pizza peel/pan.
• Preheat oven to 450 deg F.
• Lightly spray the peel/pan with the cooking spray and place the lower crust on it.
• Gently add the broccoli to the potato/herb mixture, taking care not to "mush" broccoli.
• Spread vegetables over rolled crust on peel/pan, leaving about 1"-2" around the outer edge to fold over for seal.
• Sprinkle cheese over veggies (if using).
• Roll the smaller piece of dough into the same shape and place over potato/broccoli filling.
• Bring outer edges of lower crust up and fold over top crust to form a seal on the top, all the way around.
• Bake in preheated 450 deg oven, preferably on a pizza stone, for 15 minutes , or until lightly browned.
• Allow to cool about 5 minutes before serving.
• Serve warmed pasta sauce as a topping or side, if desired.

BROCCOLI, PEPPERONI AND THREE CHEESE CALZONES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, proof the yeast by blending it with 1/4 cup of the warm water. Let stand until it bubbles.
• In a large bowl combine the flour, salt, and sugar. Blend in the one tablespoon of olive oil by rubbing the mixture between the palms of your hands. Make a well in the dry ingredients. Add proofed yeast mixture and work in by hand. Gradually add the remaining warm water. Blend well and gather into a ball.
• Place one teaspoon of olive oil on a wooden board. Knead dough on board until smooth. Place dough in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours or until doubled in bulk.
• Meanwhile, prepare calzone filling: separate the broccoli tops from the stalks. Soak in cool water with 1 teaspoon salt for 15 minutes. Rinse in cool water. Cook in a large pot of boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain well and chop into small pieces. Place in large bowl with provolone cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic, pepperoni, olive oil, salt, and ground black pepper.
• Punch down dough and knead for one minute. Divide into six equal pieces. On a floured board, roll each section into a 8x10 inch rectangle.
• In a small bowl combine the beaten egg and water. On the long side of the dough, place 2/3 cup filling in a strip one inch away from the edges of the dough. Flatten the filling with a spoon. Brush egg mixture over edges of dough. Fold the dough over the filling. Fold edges under 1/4 inch. Seal edges.
• Sprinkle two 12x16 inch baking pans with cornmeal. Place three calzones on each baking pan. Brush remaining egg mixture on top of calzones. Prick tops of calzones with toothpick, making holes 1/2 inch apart on top of dough.
