MUFFALETTA SANDWICH KIT

Muffaletta Sandwich Kit
Feeds 8-10

We are so excited for this collaboration between the delicious and world renowned olive salad from Central Grocery in the French Quarter of New Orleans; and cured meats from our co-conspirators in the meat world, Casella’s, and Tempesta Artisans, who take our meat in to craft the mortadella, prosciutto, and salami.

Originating among Italian immigrants in New Orleans, Louisiana, the muffaletta sandwich takes its name from a Sicilian sesame bread, between which rests piled high layers of thinly sliced cured meats. Our version is full of Heritage prosciutto and salami, along with artisan cheese and traditional olive salad — all you need is our favorite bread! Best after it rests a while to let the juices meld, this sandwich is perfect to pre-make for parties or picnics.

• Heritage Mortadella, one 2lb piece, Tempesta Artisans
