Bake flavorful Italian calzones filled with artichokes and three types of cheese: ricotta, pecorino Romano, and fontina. Ricotta adds creaminess, melty fontina adds chewiness, and pecorino sheep's cheese imbues the calzones with rich flavor. A little lemon zest perfectly enhances the artichoke flavor, and sun-dried tomatoes add a sweet note. Seal the filling in pizza dough and bake the calzones on a baking sheet dusted with finely grated cornmeal for a crispy bottom. Dip them in tomato sauce and enjoy!

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly dust a heavy nonstick baking sheet with cornmeal. Set aside.
- Place the artichokes, Pecorino Romano, ricotta, fontina, sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest in the bowl of a food processor. Process until finely chopped.
- Cut the pizza dough into four pieces. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into four circles, each 15 cm in diameter and 0.5 cm thick. Using a pastry brush, brush the dough with beaten egg white. Spread a quarter of the filling on one side of each circle.
- Fold the dough over the filling to form a semicircle. Press the edges of the dough tightly to seal the filling inside. Place the calzone on the prepared baking sheet.
- Drizzle the calzones with extra-virgin olive oil. Season lightly with salt and black pepper. Using a sharp knife, make several slits in the surface of each calzone to allow steam to escape. Bake until golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 30-35 minutes.
- Serve with warm tomato sauce.
