Instructions
- 1
Using a long serrated knife, slice the round bread entirely in half horizontally. Remove a small amount of the soft interior crumb from both halves to create a "bowl" for the fillings.
- 2
Spoon the olive salad (including its seasoned oils) generously over both the top and bottom interior halves of the bread, spreading it evenly to the edges.
- 3
On the bottom half, begin layering the ingredients to create distinct stripes: lay down half the provolone, then the salami, then the mortadella.
- 4
Continue layering with the ham, and finally the rest of the provolone cheese.
- 5
Carefully place the top half of the bread over the meats. Press down very firmly with your hands to compress the sandwich and force the olive oil into the bread.
- 6
For the absolute best flavor, wrap the entire sandwich tightly in plastic wrap and let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) before cutting into wedges to serve.
