The muffuletta has two meanings. It is a type of sesame-crusted bread from Sicily and at the same time a popular sandwich from New Orleans. We've made ours with olive and caper salad, mortadella, mozzarella, salami, and cheese slices. So, if you're a fan of layered, savory sandwiches, this one is for you!
