REAL N'AWLINS MUFFULETTA
These gigantic sandwiches were invented a century ago at Sicilian Deli here in New Orleans. The spicy, tangy olive salad is what really sets this meat and cheese sandwich apart. A genuine muffuletta should be made on oven-fresh Italian bread topped with sesame seeds. Be sure and use the highest-quality ingredients available; it really makes a difference! Since you're going to all the trouble of making the olive salad, consider doubling the recipe so you'll have some extra waiting around for when you get another muffuletta craving -- it keeps for at least a month! Note: Use round bread loaves for real muffuletta.

Steps:
- To Make Olive Salad: In a medium bowl, combine the green olives, kalamata olives, garlic, cauliflower, capers, celery, carrot, pepperoncini, cocktail onions, celery seed, oregano, basil, black pepper, vinegar, olive oil and canola oil. Mix together and transfer mixture into a glass jar (or other nonreactive container). If needed, pour in more oil to cover. Cover jar or container and refrigerate at least overnight.
- To Make Sandwiches: Cut loaves of bread in half horizontally; hollow out some of the excess bread to make room for filling. Spread each piece of bread with equal amounts olive salad, including oil. Layer 'bottom half' of each loaf with 1/2 of the salami, ham, mortadella, mozzarella and Provolone. Replace 'top half' on each loaf and cut sandwich into quarters.
- Serve immediately, or wrap tightly and refrigerate for a few hours; this will allow for the flavors to mingle and the olive salad to soak into the bread.

MUFFULETTA
Muffuletta, which originated in New Orleans, is named after the round, crusty Sicilian loaf of bread it's traditionally served on. While I favor my own olive salad, there are several good versions available in most supermarkets. -Lou Sansevero, Ferron, Utah

Steps:
- Slice 1 to 1 1/2-inches off the top of the loaf of bread using a bread knife. Cut around the perimeter of the interior crumb, making sure not to break through the bottom crust, then use your hand to lift out the excess bread from the inside, leaving you with a hollow bread boat.
- Spread half of olive salad along bottom of bread boat. Layer 1/3 or mortadella, 1/3 of sopressata, 1/3 of capicola, and 1/3 of provolone. Repeat cold cut and cheese layers 2 more times. Top with remaining olive salad and close sandwich.
- Wrap sandwich tightly in aluminum foil or burtcher paper, then place in between 2 stiff cutting boards. Place a heavy weight on top (about 40 pounds), press down firmly to flatten sandwich, then let rest under the weight for at least 4 hours and up to overnight (keep an eye on the sandwich to ensure that it is pressing evenly).
- When ready to eat, remove weight, slice sandwich into 4 pieces through paper or foil with a bread knife, unwrap, and serve.

Steps:
- For the rolls: Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- Halve the rolls horizontally and remove some of the bread from the insides of the top halves. Drizzle the rolls evenly with the olive oil and grill until lightly toasted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a tray and rub the toasted sides of the rolls with the garlic. Set aside.
- For the filling: Sprinkle the steak evenly on both sides with 1 teaspoon salt. Drizzle the onion slices with 1 teaspoon olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, being careful to keep the slices intact so that they are easier to grill. Place the steak and onions on the grill and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the steak reads 135 degrees F and the onions are deep golden, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Allow the steak to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Meanwhile, combine the olives, basil, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, lemon juice, anchovy paste, oregano, roasted peppers and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl. Mix well to combine. Thinly slice the steak against the grain. Add the sliced steak to the filling, along with the grilled onions and any accumulated juices from the plate. Toss well to combine.
- Place two slices of provolone on each toasted roll. Fill each roll with 1 cup arugula. Divided the steak filling among the rolls. Cut them in half and serve.

MUSHROOM STEAK HOAGIES
My husband loves these sandwiches. They are so meaty, cheesy and wonderful. Best paired with Baked Basil Fries. Found both recipes in Quick Cooking. Tips: if meat is fatty, make sure to drain after cooking; meat is good even if only marinated for a few hours; extra yummy with deli mustard on rolls.
