Gemma's Nutella-Ricotta Calzone ($15) comes to the table on a wooden cutting board and flurry of powdered sugar. It's huge, big enough to feed four comfortably or two gluttons. Split it in half and out comes steam, followed by a silky slow ooze of warmed Nutella...
...and fresh ricotta, sweetened just a tad. It's an ideal marriage, the custardy ricotta functioning as a buffer to the heady rush of Nutella. Call it rich but not excessive, in partial thanks to the fact that it's baked and not fried. I like to slice off that crisp end triangle and dip it right into the split center. Glamourous finger food.
