Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Oil 1 (11 by 17-inch) baking sheet.
- Pour 1/4 cup olive oil in mixing bowl. Place the dough in the bowl and rub with olive oil. Let dough come to room temperature. The dough will loosen and rise slightly in bowl. On a lightly floured work surface knead the dough lightly until smooth. Roll out the dough into a rectangular shape, about 12 by 10-inches. Brush off any excess flour and transfer to the oiled baking sheet. Brush with olive oil and let rise for about 15 to 20 minutes. Press your fingers into the dough to make evenly spaced indentations, brush with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle with gray salt. Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes, the bread should be browned and crisp on the bottom. Remove from the oven and let cool to a warm room temperature.
- Meanwhile combine the sun-dried tomatoes, sherry vinegar, and olive oil in a blender. Blend until smooth and taste for salt and pepper.
- To assemble the sandwich:
- Slice the sheet of focaccia in half as if you are making 1 giant sandwich. Spread the top of the bread with the mayonnaise and the bottom with the sun-dried tomato dressing. Lay down a layer of each sliced meat and then a layer of provolone, followed by a layer of tomatoes. Season tomatoes with salt and pepper, top with the arugula and place the top half of the focaccia on top. Your 1 giant sandwich can now be sliced into individual sandwiches or bite sized squares.

Sandwich Recipes: The Art of Simplicity
Bread, Meat, Cheese, and Veggies: The Foundation of a Great SandwichWhether you're making a classic BLT, a grilled cheese, or a more complex creation, the foundation of any great sandwich lies in the quality of its components.
- Use the freshest ingredients possible. Stale bread, old cheese, and withered veggies will not make a great sandwich.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread and cheese. There are countless options out there, so find what you like and go for it.
- Be careful to balance the ingredients. A sandwich should not be too heavy on one ingredient or another. There should be a harmonious balance of flavors and textures.
The Art of Building a Sandwich
- Start with a sturdy bread that can hold up to your fillings. Ciabatta, focaccia, and sourdough are all good options.
- Add your fillings in the right order. Meats and cheeses should go in the middle, while veggies and spreads should go on top.
- Don't be afraid to press your sandwich. This will help to keep it together and make it easier to eat.
- Toast your sandwich if desired. This will give it a nice crispy texture and help the flavors to meld together.
- There are countless ways to dress up your sandwiches with various toppings and sides. Some popular options for toppings include sliced avocado, hard-boiled eggs, bacon, and sprouts.
- For sides, try a simple greenサラダ, a cup of tomato суп, or some crispy french fries.
Conclusion
With a little bit of planning and effort, you can make a delicious sandwich that will be the envy of your friends. So get creative and experiment with different ingredients and techniques. You're sure to find a combination that you love.
