Why This Pressed Sourdough Muffuletta Gets Better After 2 Hours Under Weight

A homemade Italian Muffuletta sandwich built on crusty sourdough and loaded with mortadella, Milano salami, Italian ham, mozzarella, Swiss cheese, and a bold homemade olive salad with artichokes, roasted red peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes. The sandwich is pressed under a heavy pot for two hours so the oil and vinegar soak deep into the bread. Great for sharing, picnics, or making ahead.
