Makes 4 large or 8 small calzones, 8 servings

Approximate pr

eparation time: 1 hour for the pizza dough,

25 minutes plus 30 minutes baking and resting time

Preheat the oven to 400º F

. Line a shallow baking sheet with

foil.

Prepar

e the Pizza Dough and let rise.

Insert the small metal chopping blade into the small work bowl

of the Cuisinart

®

Food Processor

. Add the parsley and basil and

pulse to chop, about 10 quick pulses. Remove work bowl and

reserve.

Insert the slicing disc, adjusted to 5mm, into the medium work

bowl of the Cuisinart

®

Food Processor

. Use medium pressur

e to

slice the red and yellow peppers. Remove and toss with the

olive oil. Spread in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast in

the middle of the oven for about 25 to 20 minutes, until tender

and beginning to brown. T

ransfer to a small bowl, toss with the

balsamic vinegar and let cool.

Raise the oven temperature to 450º F

. If using a baking stone,

place it on the rack. Sprinkle a nonstick baking sheet (not

“air-bake” type) or pizza peel with cor

nmeal.

Insert the fine shredding disc into the lar

ge work bowl and

shred the Par

mesan. Reverse the shredding disc to the medium

side and shred the mozzar

ella by using medium pressur

e.

Leave the cheeses in the work bowl. Replace the shredding disc with the lar

ge metal

chopping blade. Sprinkle the chevre and r

eserved herbs over the mozzarella. Pulse to

combine, 12 to 15 times. Remove and refrigerate until r

eady to assemble the calzones.

Divide the dough into 4 or 8 equal balls. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rest for

10 minutes. Lightly flour the work surface. Roll into rounds, 10-inches each in diameter

for 4 balls and 6-inches in diameter for 8 balls. Spread the cheese mixtur

e over half the

dough, leaving a 1-inch border

. Use ½ cup for the larger calzones, ¼ cup for the smaller

calzones. Drain the peppers. Sprinkle the peppers over the cheese mixture, ¼ cup for

the larger calzones, 2 tablespoons for the smaller calzones.

Brush the border of the dough lightly with water

. Fold the dough over the filling and press

firmly to seal the edges. Then make overlapping folds ar

ound the edges of the calzone.

Use a serrated knife to make three 1-inch slashes on the top of each calzone for the steam

to escape. Place on a cornmeal-dusted baker’

s peel and transfer to the preheated baking

stone or on a cornmeal-dusted baking sheet and place in the hot oven.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the dough is baked through and is a deep golden br

own.

Transfer to a rack to cool for 10 minutes befor

e serving. Calzones may be served hot or at

room temperatur

e. Leftover calzones should be wrapped in foil or plastic wrap and

refrigerated. Re-war

m in a 375ºF oven before serving; micr

owaving is not recommended.
