Notes: Gram always made this to begin our Sunday feasts. It makes a beautiful, colorful centerpiece and she always served it with fresh crusty Italian bread. Gramma always knew my favorite ingredient was the salami so she always went heavier on that layer. You can do that to any of the layers that you wish. When my Mom makes this, she adds a small jar of marinated artichoke hearts as well.
