Steps:
- Drain the peppeoncinis and cut the ends off. I usually squeeze the seed bundle out, but you don't have to.
- Very lightly brush each slice of salami with olive oil.
- Put a slice of provolone on each slice of salami and lightly brush with olive oil again. (If the provolone is wider than the salami, just fold it down on one side, then roll long-wise.).
- Wrap salami and provolone around pepperoncini and secure with a toothpick.
- Cover and refrigerate.
- Note: If the provolone is significantly larger in diameter than the salami, only get half as many slices of provolone and cut them in half.
