Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your muffuletta sandwich.

  • Make sure to slice the bread thick. This will help it hold up to the fillings.
  • Don't skimp on the olive salad. This is what really makes a muffuletta sandwich special. You can either make your own olive salad or buy it from a deli.
  • Layer the sandwich carefully. Start with the olive salad, then add the meats, cheeses, and vegetables.
  • Press the sandwich down firmly. This will help it hold together.
  • Wrap the sandwich tightly in plastic wrap. This will help it keep its shape.
  • Chill the sandwich for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld.
