NYT bread - muffaletta?

I haven't made any NYT bread yet, and I'm wondering if I could use it for muffaletta? Is the texture too open?

Not too open, Karen. I use it often to make grilled cheese sammies.

I don't see a problem with that. I often make panini sandwiches with NY times bread.

Another option. Make a muffaletta salad and then make some grilled buttered garlic bread topped with your favorite cheese, we do brie...

Oh kades, that sounds so good. I just finished dinner, but I could eat a bunch of that grilled buttered garlic bread topped with brie anyway..........

I seem to be a spoiler. Yet??!!!

Go to this website and read the history of the sandwich. There is also a recipe. Then make your decision, if you haven't already started.

Simplicity, I've had the great pleasure of eating muffuletta from Central Grocery in NO and it is wonderful. We are planning a picnic in the near future, and I thought a muffuletta would be perfect, as my son is visiting and he also has visited NO and has a love for the food there. I've made my own muffuletta many times, but here in Mexico, I cannot buy a round Italian loaf of bread, so I knew I would have to make my own bread. My question was, would the NYT bread work? It seems to have a more open texture than the bread that is used in NO...thanks for the link, though.

Miss Karen...Make your sammich out of what you want/got...It will work and be good...Sometimes I use french bread...then it's a Frenchuletta So, I guess if you use the NYT bread it will be a New York Timesuletta!!


Have Fun & Enjoy!!!
