The muffelatta is a popular submarine-style sandwich that originated among Italian immigrants in New Orleans, Louisiana. The key ingredient is the Olive Mix. Ideally you want to make the sandwich an hour or two before eating it so the juices from the olive mix can soak into the bread, which makes this a perfect picnic sandwich.

This extraordinary muffelatta relish comes to us directly from “N’Awlins”, where gourmet cooking is practically a way of life. A flavorful blend of olives, pimientos, parsley, oregano, basil,oil, garlic and vinegar, this zesty mixture livens up any sandwich. Or, spoon it over some bufala mozzarella for an unexpected delight. You’ve got to try this stuff!
