Muffaletta
Recipe Source: All-Star Sandwich Bar Preparation Time: 10 minutesCook Time: 0 minutesServings: 2The name "muffaletta" once referred only to the bread, a chewy round loaf turned out by Italian bakeries. New Orleans grocery stores that sold the bread got the fine idea to slice it horizontally and stuff it, and the muffuletta sandwich was born. It has become a signature dish of The Big Easy, but, like the po boy, has become known nationwide. It depends on good bread and cold cuts, but the soul of a muffaletta is its olive salad. This is the recipe used at the wonderful All-Star Sandwich Bar in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
Ingredients:
Olive Salad1 cup rough-chopped green olives2 teaspoons chopped garlic1/4 cup finely diced celery1/4 cup finely diced carrot2 tablespoons dried oregano2 tablespoons red wine vinegar2 tablespoons lemon juice1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil1 teaspoon cracked black pepper.To make the sandwich1 large loaf of fresh Italian bread (circular loaf preferred)1/3 pound thinly sliced Genoa salami1/3 pound thinly sliced ham1/3 pound mortadella1/3 pound thinly sliced provolone cheese
