Critiques

1. Chunky Tomato Sauce
   • No complaints
2. Goat cheese and Shitake Mushrooms
   • It need something maybe a provolone or pesto
3. Tuna Steak and Spinach
   • 1 thumbs up
   • I didn’t like Tuna Steak. Baked inside of a calzone over cooks it. Probably not an ideal meat for calzones
4. Salami and Pesto
   • Maybe add provolone cheese
5. Pan Seared Tuna with lime Creme Fraiche
   • 1 thumbs up
   • I didn’t like Tuna Steak. Baked inside of a calzone over cooks it. Probably not an ideal meat for calzones
   • Seems to be a waste to over cook Tuna maybe replace with chicken
6. Dough
   • Too much flour
   • Need to try corn meal instead of corn flour
   • Roll out with less flour
   • Try egg yolk brush
