How To Make muffuletta sandwich

  • 1
    Prepare the olive salad by combining the olives and roasted pepper, garlic, parsley and vinegar. Take one round loaf (one big round for a traditional Muffaletta or individual sub buns for smaller sandwiches) and cut the loaf (or loaves) in half. Scoop out a little bread from the inside to make room for filling. Drizzle olive oil on each side of the open bread -- use plenty.
  • 2
    On the bottom half, layer mortadella, olive salad, salami, prosciutto, mild cheese and provolone. Top with the other half of bread. Tightly wrap entire sandwich in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. To serve, slice into wedges.
