If you aren\u2019t familiar with the muffuletta sandwich<\/u>, you should be. It\u2019s filled with three different cured meats, a plethora of olives, roasted red peppers, and other brined ingredients. It\u2019s big and proud, and this dip is the perfect scoopable version of it. Because the sandwich<\/u> is a New Orleans\u2019 native, it would be fun to serve the dip at any Mardi Gras<\/u> celebration or just at your next gathering.<\/p>\n
If you can find a muffuletta loaf\u2014it\u2019s what the sandwich is normally built on and named after\u2014go ahead and use that. Otherwise, a sesame or other seed-crusted sourdough boule will do well\u2014even a plain loaf works if you\u2019re in a pinch! If you use a plain loaf, you can add some sesame seeds to the dip if you like. Use the pieces of bread you\u2019ve carved out of the boule as dippers, and once the dip starts running low, you can slice pieces out of the bread bowl. Talk about zero waste!<\/p>\n
