- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 3 tablespoons aged sherry vinegar
- 1 1/2 cups mixed pitted green olives, such as picholine and cerignola
- 4 piquillo chiles, or 2 roasted red bell peppers (see Notes, page 22)
- Cloves from 1 head garlic, roasted
- 4 anchovy fillets in oil, patted dry
- 1/2 small red onion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 (8- or 9-inch) round loaf Italian bread
- 1/3 pound thinly sliced Italian Genoa salami
- 1/3 pound thinly sliced Spanish salami
- 1/3 pound thinly sliced Serrano ham
- 1/3 pound thinly sliced capicola ham
- 1/3 pound thinly sliced Manchego cheese
- To make the dressing, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, olives, peppers, garlic, anchovies, onion, oregano, and parsley in a food processor and pulse until almost smooth (it should be a little chunky); season with salt and pepper.
- Slice the bread in half horizontally.
- Remove a little of the inside of the top crust; then slather the bottom and top halves of the bread with the dressing.
- Layer the meats and cheese on the bottom half of the bread and cover with the top half.
- Wrap the sandwich tightly in foil and place on a baking sheet.
- Put a heavy saute pan on top, and put a few cans inside the pan to weight it down.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 and up to 24 hours.
- Serve at room temperature.
