Instructions
Olive Mixture
- In a medium bowl, combine all the olive mixture ingredients together. Set aside.
Assemble The Muffuletta
- Slice the Muffuletta bread in half horizontally. Scoop out some of the interior of the bread to make room for the rest of the ingredients.
- Spread half of the olive mixture in the bottom of the bread then start layering with genoa salami, mortadella and swiss cheese slices.
- Continue layering with Capicolla and then provolone cheese. Top with the other half of the olive mixture, then the top bread slice.
- Lightly press the bread down and slice it into quarters and serve.
Notes
- If you’re in a rush and just don’t have time to chop all the olives, garlic, and giardiniera by hand, you can carefully pulse it together using a food processor.
- Do press the top of the sandwich down to flatten it just a bit. This is the authentic way to make the recipe.
- . It’s traditionally eaten cold but is also super yummy warmed up. Just wrap the sandwich in foil and put it in the oven or place it on the grill for a few minutes.
