About
talian family dinners often start with antipasto; platters full of Italian cured meats, cheeses, olives and roasted peppers. I think I could eat antipasto everyday so it was my inspiration for this sandwich! In my opinion, a good Italian Sub MUST start with good bread, like this ciabatta roll. Nice crust on the outside and the inside is perfectly chewy. Its not overly doughy which I love too!
Inside that perfect roll are layers upon layers of goodness! At the base, a simple olive spread, then a whole lot of fresh arugula, slices of fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers and that perfectly meaty salty soppresata! A little sprinkle of oregano and you are all set to enjoy a fabulous antipasto inspired Italian Sub.
