Authentic home cooking from Italy, with US measurements. 
Leccese Calzone
I just had to make Calzone at home—having a picky Salento-born partner, there was no way we could go without the famous, undisputed king of Leccese street food. And don’t you dare call it a Panzerotto! 😂
In fact, he helped me make it.
For the recipe, I turned to my friends from Salento, who shared with me the traditional ingredients and secrets.
