Ingredients

  • Mike's Deli Sliced Provolone
  • Dilusso Genoa salami (extra aged)
  • Don Michele prosciutto di Parma
  • capicola
  • mortadella
  • Oldani salami
  • hot soppresatta
  • marinated artichokes
  • preserved Italian red peppers
  • basil and arugula (from Perlow's garden)
  • Mike's Deli fresh mozzarella
  • olive oil and balsamic vinegar

Method

  • Start with a whole ciabatta loaf, cut it in half, and layer it with assorted goodies. Perlow's are from
  • on Arthur Avenue in the Bronx, but you can assemble your own with whatever equivalent ingredients you have easy access to.
  • After assembling it, put the sandwich into a milk crate with barbell weights on top, to "flatten it into submission" overnight in the refrigerator.
