Epic Muffaletta Sandwich [New Orleans Muffuletta]
The Muffaletta is a New Orleans Sandwich that's hearty, full of flavour, and a crowd pleaser! This recipe got me a wedding ring, but YMMV :)
Servings: 8 People
Calories: 746kcal
Ingredients
- 1 Large Round Italian Loaf Or Sourdough
- 2 Cups Olive Salad or more, if you'd like!
- ½ lb Thinly Sliced Mortadella
- ½ lb Thinly Sliced Genoa Salami
- ½ lb Thinly Sliced Ham
- ½ lb Provolone Cheese Sliced
- ½ lb Mozzarella Cheese Sliced
Instructions
- If necessary, slice loaf of bread in half horizontally. Scoop out a bit of the bread inside (I like to freeze it to make stuffing with at a later date!). This allows room for all of the meats, cheeses, and salad you’ll be stuffing the sandwich with.
- If the oil in your olive salad has solidified, warm up about 2 cups of salad in the microwave, just until oil has liquified. Drizzle some of the salad oil on cut side of both halves of the loaf, and spread with olive salad. Use as much / little of the ~ 2 cups as you want.
- Layer meats and cheeses on the bottom half of the loaf to construct the sandwich – I like to alternate meats and cheeses, but feel free to go your own way with it.
- Carefully cover with the top half of the loaf.
- Wrap tightly with plastic wrap, chill for 30 minutes.
- To serve, unwrap and cut into wedges.
