Guest RobJohnstone Report post Posted September 26, 2002 Stromboli is traditionally a sub with sausage, cheese, sauce, onions, peppers. Calzone's basically dough stuffed with stuff and baked. a stromboli is normally lots of meats and very oilly. Sausage, pepporoni, peppers, etc...... a calzone is based strictly on 2 main ingredients, dough and cheese. There is a always something to go with those 2 such as ham or spinach, but its mostly cheese inbside there. --Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Razor Roman Report post Posted October 11, 2002 You can almost think of a Stromboli as a pizza rolled up into the stromboli shape. A calzone is usually a dough pocket stuffed with mozarella & ricotta, and generally there is some sort of ham (prosciutto, capicola, or regular ham depending on how italian the population near you is) in it... and you usually dip it in tomato sauce if you want to.
