Preheat the oven to 450 degrees for 30 minutes. 2. Roll the dough of your choice out to an even 1/8 inch thickness with a rolling pin. If necessary, use dustings of flour to prevent the dough from sticking. 3. Cut out as many panzerotti as possible using a 3 inch glass as a cutter. 4. Combine all of the ingredients together in a bowl for any of the 6 filling suggestions. 5. Put a scant teaspoon of filling on one half of each of the circles of dough. (There will be leftover filling if using Roman Pepper Pastry Dough; use it in an omelet.) 6. Fold the dough over into little crescent shapes, pressing down to seal the edges with your fingers. Place each one on an oiled baking sheet. 7. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until lightly colored. Or deep-fry in 2 inches of vegetable oil until golden. Panzerotti are best served piping hot. Freezing Panzerotti Freeze the raw panzerotti in one layer on a baking sheet. Once they are frozen solid, they can be transferred to plastic bags. The can be frozen up to 4 months. Reheating Panzerotti To reheat Panzerotti,simply put them on a baking sheet and warm them up in a 350 degree oven for 10 to 15 minutes. To bake frozen panzerotti, preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Lay the panzerotti on a baking sheet and cover them tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 15 minutes. Then remove the foil and continue baking until turnovers are golden brown.
