I’ve never had a green olive in my life before I made this dip.
On the first day of drama in 10th grade, we had to do that horrifying thing where you stand up and tell everyone your name and then say something interesting about yourself.
So one girl (who I later played a Christmas stocking with in our holiday play) stood up, introduced herself, and said her favorite food was green olives and the entire class said, “Ewwww!”
I’ve avoided green olives ever since.
I love kalamata olives. I can even get into those weird metallic tasting black olives sometimes. Who knows why I let a bunch of 15 year olds keep me from green olives for so long.
What Is Muffuletta Sandwich?
Muffuletta Sandwiches originated in New Orleans, LA. It’s a round loaf of bread with layers of olive salad, salami, ham, and swiss or provolone cheese. Muffuletta sandwiches are typically served cold and in New Orleans, you can buy them as the entire round loaf, half a loaf, or even a quarter. They are a must try when in New Orleans!
Ingredients
- Italian olive salad – you can find this in most large grocery stores these days (my small town Walmart has it) but if you can’t find it, you can order it online.
- Kalamata olives – make sure to remove any pits!
- Green olives
- Roasted red bell pepper
- Pepperoncini – use mild banana peppers instead if you don’t want that much spice.
- Celery rib
- Salami
- Ham
- Provolone – try to find thicker sliced provolone. The thin slices are harder to cut and don’t stand out in the dip.
- Fresh parsley
- Olive oil
- French bread – slice and toasted so you can spoon the dip on the slices.
