1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 large shallot, minced
4 teaspoons minced fresh oregano
1 rectangular 10x7x1 1/2-inch bread loaf (such as ciabatta)
3 ounces sliced provolone cheese
4 ounces sliced Italian Genoa salami
4 ounces sliced Black Forest ham
3 tablespoons finely chopped pitted brine-cured green olives

This is the best grilled ham and cheese sandwich I've ever had.

Amazing grilled sandwich! The caper relish is a must-try.

This recipe is a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less salt in the caper relish.

I didn't have any capers, so I used a jarred giardiniera instead. It was still delicious!

This sandwich is a great way to use up leftover ham and cheese. And the caper relish adds a nice touch of acidity.

The capers add a salty, briny flavor that pairs perfectly with the ham, cheese, and salami. Highly recommend!

Not a fan of capers, but everything else about this recipe is spot on. Will definitely try it again with a different relish.
