Ingredients
- 1 12-inches long loaf of Italian bread
- ½ thinly-sliced onion
- 5 tbsp of vinegar (red wine)
- 5 tbsp of olive oil
- ¼ pound of deli-sliced provolone cheese
- ¼ pound of deli-sliced mortadella
- ¼ pound of deli-sliced boiled ham
- ¼ pound of deli-sliced Genoa salami
- ¼ pound of deli-sliced capicola
- ½ finally shredded iceberg lettuce (crisp lettuce!)
- ¼ to ½ cup of sliced pickled pepperoncini (optional)
- 3 thinly-sliced tomatoes
- 1 ½ tsp of dried oregano (for garnishing)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Soak the onions in ice-cold water for about 15 minutes. This helps in cutting down on the raw, sharp taste in onions and adds crispness.
- Cut the bread into halves, lengthwise. Dig up a well-like structure in the bottom half.
- In the well, drizzle two tablespoons of each of the vinegar and extra-virgin olive oil. Add pepper and salt according to taste.
- Layer the meat and cheese as per your liking on the bottom half of your bread.
- Drain the soaked onions in water. Pat the onions dry to ensure that you get rid of all water content.
- Top the meat and cheese layers with lettuce, tomatoes, pepperoncini (optional), and onion.
- Drizzle two tablespoons each of olive oil and vinegar.
- Garnish with some oregano, and sprinkle some salt & pepper to taste.
- On top of this, drizzle one tablespoon of olive oil and vinegar.
- Wrapping up, garnish the sandwich or the upper half of the bread with remaining dried oregano for added taste.
- Cut into four pieces (optional) and serve fresh!
