Ingredients

  • 4 Kaiser or other round, seeded rolls, each 4
  • inches in diameter, split
  • 1 cup olive salad
  • 3 oz. thinly sliced cooked ham
  • 3 oz. thinly sliced Genoa salami
  • 4 oz. thinly sliced mortadella
  • 4 slices provolone cheese

Instructions

  • Lay the roll halves, cut sides up, on a work surface. Brush the cut sides with oil from the olive salad. On the bottom half of each roll, spread 2 Tbs. to 1/4 cup olive salad. Place the ham, salami, mortadella and cheese on top, dividing evenly. Cover each sandwich with the top half of a roll. Cook the sandwiches immediately, or cover and refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to develop.
  • Preheat an electric panini press on medium-low according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Place the sandwiches, one at a time, on the preheated panini press. Cook according to the manufacturer's instructions until the sandwich is warmed through and the cheese is melted, 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board and cut each into quarters. Serve warm. Serves 6 to 8.
  • Inspired by the classic sandwich served throughout New Orleans.
