Home Made Muffuletta Only So So

Olive Salad
Originally uploaded by Candlemaker.

Looks like it's back to the drawing board on our Muffuletta project. The olive salad was good and seemed like what we had in New Orleans but we need to work on building the sandwich. One problem was the bread, the rolls we had planned to use were sold out and the substitute was way too big and the texture and flavor weren'™t right. Also, we used too much olive salad. A little bit of that goes a long way. A drizzle of olive oil would have helped too. The cold cuts were great. We got them over at Tutto Italiano on River St. in Hyde Park. I haven'€™t been there yet but J loves them and is always bringing nice stuff home. They don'€™t have a web site but a Google search brings up several results including one from The Phantom Gourmet.
