Subj : World Sandwiches 13 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Fri Apr 23 2021 22:06:48 50 of the World's Most Iconic Sandwiches by Emily Marten MUFFALETTA (USA) Muffaletta is not only the name of this sandwich but also the round Sicilian bread loaf used to make it. While the bread is of Italian origins, the sandwich is actually said to be created in New Orleans by a Sicilian immigrant named Salvatore Lupo. It's stacked with layers of salami, ham, mortadella, provolone, Swiss cheese, and muffaletta-style olive salad (made with giardinera veggies).

ASSEMBLE THE MUFFALETTA Slice the loaf of bread in half lengthwise and scoop out part of the interior to make room for the olive-pepper salad. Save the scooped out bread for another use if you’d like. Lay the bread slices down with the insides facing up. Spread the olive tapenade mixture evenly over the bread slices. Layer the bottom slice with capicola, mortadella, salami and provolone cheese. Top with the other half of bread. Wrap the entire muffaletta sandwich with plastic wrap and set a pan or other weight over the top of the sandwich to lightly press it down. This will let the bread soak up some of the tapenade juices and build a lot of flavor. Set aside for 1 hour. Unwrap the sandwich, slice it into 8 triangular pieces and serve.
