Directions:MAKE THE OLIVE SALAD
Add Giardiniera, olives, shallot, garlic, and parsley to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 5-6 times, until evenly chopped with no large pieces remaining. Transfer to a bowl and stir in oregano, vinegar, olive oil, and capers until combined. Cover and let stand at least an hour, or refrigerate overnight. (Bring salad back to room temperature before assembling sandwiches if refrigerating.)
ASSEMBLE THE SANDWICH
Slice bread round in half. If it's thick, hollow out some of the interior to make room for the fillings. Spread each bread half with about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of olive salad (amount will depend on the size of your round, you might have leftover salad). Layer with sliced meats and cheeses, place halves together, and wrap with plastic wrap. Weight sandwich with a grill press or a cast iron skillet and refrigerate for an hour. Unwrap, cut muffuletta into wedges, and serve. |
