Buckwheat & Ham Calzone

Author: Flavelo
Recipes Main Courses Quick Meals
The earthy, nutty flavour profile of buckwheat flour (sarrasin) adds depth to the dough, which pairs wonderfully with smoked ham. Although buckwheat is gluten-free, in this recipe we mix it with wheat flour so the dough remains extensible and airy, but retains its rustic character. In Northern Italy, this grain is often used for pasta and polenta.

Instructions

1 ✓

Mix the flours, salt and yeast. Add the water and oil, then knead into a dough.

Tip: Buckwheat has high water absorption capacity but hydrates slowly. If the dough seems sticky at first, wait 5 minutes before adding more flour.
2 ✓

Cover and prove for 60 minutes. The dough won't grow as large as pure wheat dough because there is less gluten network.

Tip: Don't expect 'doubling in size', approx. 1.5 times volume is enough.
3 ✓

Prepare the filling: mix the garlic and oregano into the tomato sauce.

Tip: Cold sauce doesn't soak the dough as quickly.
4 ✓

Divide dough into 4 parts, roll into circles. Fill (sauce, ham, cheese), fold in half and seal.

Tip: Be careful when folding, buckwheat dough is more fragile!
5 ✓

Brush with egg, prick, and bake at 200°C for 20-25 minutes.

Tip: Buckwheat is darker in colour, so it's harder to see when it's baked. Check the dough hardness (it should sound hollow when tapped).

Recipe FAQ

Why did the dough tear?
Buckwheat flour has no gluten content, so the dough structure is weaker. Don't roll it too thin!
What ham should I use?
Cooked ham (prosciutto cotto) or Black Forest ham goes best with the buckwheat flavour.
