SIMPLE SALAMI SANDWICH
This simple salami sandwich is perfect for those hot summer days when you don't want to fire up the oven. The olive mixture poses as a dressing for the lettuce and tomato but also soaks down in that top piece of bread so it's not dry.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Slice open the baguette and place it on a baking sheet. Top one half with a layer of the Camembert and the other half with the salami (go for about 2 layers of salami-not too much, not too little). Bake until the bread is toasty and the cheese is melty, about 5 minutes.
- Transfer to a serving plate and top with tomatoes, onions, bell pepper, a big pile of lettuce, olives, pickled peppers, cornichons and more cornichons, and drizzle liberally with the Vinaigrette. Sandwich together and enjoy!
- In a large measuring cup, combine the vinegar and shallot and let it sit for a few minutes so the shallot can mellow out. Whisk in the mustard and then drizzle in the olive oil while whisking continuously so that it emulsifies. Season with salt and pepper.
EASY ITALIAN GRILLED SANDWICHES
Assemble this muffuletta-inspired pressed sandwich late-morning, then wrap it in foil and put it under a heavy skillet for at least an hour to let the flavors meld. After a spell on the grill or in the oven to melt the cheese, simply cut and pass the panini around the table.

PRESSED PICNIC SANDWICH
This is an adaptation of a Martha Stewart recipe that hubby and I bring on picnics during the summer. We pack it into the bottom of our picnic basket and let the weight of the ice packs and beverage (read wine) to weigh it down. You can use any combination of meats, cheeses, and greens, but I would not substitute the black olive paste, marinated artichokes, or the vinegrette. Don't be scared off by the ingredients or directions; this is a simple sandwich that packs a very flavorful punch.

Steps:
- Roast Peppers: (skip if using already roasted peppers) Heat a grill or grill pan to hot; or heat broiler. Cook peppers until completely charred, turning frequently so all sides cook evenly, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Place peppers in a deep bowl, and cover bowl with plastic wrap. Set bowl aside until the skins loosen and the peppers are cool enough to handle. Using your hands, rub off the charred skin, rinsing your hands frequently under cold running water. Slice peppers in half, and remove the seeds and stems. Cut flesh into 1-inch-wide strips.
- Make the vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, combine mustard and vinegar. Gradually whisk in olive oil. Whisk in 2 tablespoons warm water. Whisk in salt and pepper to taste, and set the vinaigrette aside.
- Slice loaf of bread horizontally, and remove soft crumb; reserve crumb for another use. Spread olive paste on the bottom crust, and add the roasted red pepper strips. Crumble goat cheese on top of peppers. Arrange artichoke hearts over goat cheese. Drizzle half of the reserved vinaigrette on top. Arrange prosciutto and salami over artichoke hearts. Drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette. Scatter herbs over meats. Place the top crust on sandwich.
- Wrap the sandwich tightly with plastic wrap. Set a weight, such as a brick or large cast-iron skillet on top for at least 1 hour. When ready to serve, slice sandwich into ten pieces.
