Method
Preparing the Olive Salad
Make the Olive Salad
In a mixing bowl, combine the green olives, black olives, roasted red peppers, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried oregano, red wine vinegar, and olive oil. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated with dressing.
Assembling the Muffaletta
Slice the Bread
Carefully slice the muffaletta bread or round loaf in half horizontally. Make sure not to cut all the way through; keep it connected at the back.
Layer the Ingredients
Spread half of the olive salad on the bottom half of the bread. Layer the Genoa salami, capicola, mortadella, provolone cheese, and fresh mozzarella cheese on top of the olive salad.
Add More Olive Salad
Spread the remaining olive salad on top of the cheese and meats.
Close the Sandwich
Place the top half of the bread over the fillings and press down gently to compact the sandwich.
Wrap and Refrigerate
Wrap the muffaletta tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve
Remove the sandwich from the refrigerator, unwrap it, and cut into wedges. Serve cold or at room temperature.
