Notes

FOODIE FACT: Muffuletta is an Italian-inspired deli sandwich that originated among the Italian immigrants of New Orleans. It’s famous for being huge and hearty and has grown into one of the most iconic dishes of New Orleans. INGREDIENT TIP: Available from major supermarkets, delicatessens and greengrocers, giardiniera is a jarred combo of pickled vegetables, that typically includes carrots, cauliflower, celery and capsicum. Can’t find it? Use a mix of pickled banana peppers, artichokes and pickles instead.
