Muffuletta sandwich
This iconic New Orleans sandwich was first created in 1906 by Salvatore Lupo, the Sicilian owner of Central Grocery Co, as a convenient way for workers to enjoy a traditional Italian lunch of cold meats, cheese and olives on the move. The name refers to a particular style of Sicilian sesame bread but any round loaf will work. The secret to its success is making sure you let it rest before eating, so the flavours permeate through the sandwich
