    Super Smoke

  • 3

    While the mortadella is smoking, combine the ingredients for the olive salad and let marinate. You can complete the above steps a day in advance before you assemble the sandwich.

  • 4

    To assemble the sandwich, slice the ciabatta loaf in half horizontally. Evenly divide the olive salad, including the oil and liquid, between the two halves.

  • 5

    On the bottom half of the bread, begin to layer the ingredients: salami, smoked mortadella, mozzarella, provolone, prosciutto then spicy salami. Close the sandwich and use plastic wrap to tightly wrap the sandwich, allowing all the flavors to meld and the juices to soak into the bread.

  • 6

    Place in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Take the sandwich out of the fridge, remove the plastic, slice into 4 portions, and serve cold. Enjoy!
