Cheesy Corn Muffalettas Recipes

LOW COUNTRY MUFFULETTA

Steps:

• Knead the dough to form a uniform ball. Place in a lightly greased Dutch oven. Cover and let rise at room temperature until doubled in size, 2 to 3 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Brush the top of the bread with the egg and sprinkle with the everything bagel seasoning. Bake the bread, uncovered, until golden brown and cooked through, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the Dutch oven and let cool completely.
• Heat the oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the sausage and cook until browned, about 6 minutes. Remove from the skillet.
• Cut the bread in half crosswise. To assemble the sandwich, spread the spicy mustard, pimientos and chow chow on the cut sides of the bread halves. Top the bottom half with half of the sausage and onions, half of the sliced meats and half of the cheese slices. Repeat the layers. Top with the bread top. Wrap the sandwich tightly with plastic wrap until ready to serve. (The sandwich is best after it's rested for about an hour.)

REAL N'AWLINS MUFFULETTA

Steps:

• To Make Olive Salad: In a medium bowl, combine the green olives, kalamata olives, garlic, cauliflower, capers, celery, carrot, pepperoncini, cocktail onions, celery seed, oregano, basil, black pepper, vinegar, olive oil and canola oil. Mix together and transfer mixture into a glass jar (or other nonreactive container). If needed, pour in more oil to cover. Cover jar or container and refrigerate at least overnight.
• To Make Sandwiches: Cut loaves of bread in half horizontally; hollow out some of the excess bread to make room for filling. Spread each piece of bread with equal amounts olive salad, including oil. Layer 'bottom half' of each loaf with 1/2 of the salami, ham, mortadella, mozzarella and Provolone. Replace 'top half' on each loaf and cut sandwich into quarters.
• Serve immediately, or wrap tightly and refrigerate for a few hours; this will allow for the flavors to mingle and the olive salad to soak into the bread.

CHEESY SLOW-COOKED CORN

Steps:

• In a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker, combine all ingredients. Cook, covered, on low, until heated through and cheese is melted, 3-4 hours, stirring once.

CORNED BEEF HASH BROWN MUFFALETTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Add the green olives, kalamata olives, giardiniera, capers, parsley, vinegar, olive oil and honey to a food processor and pulse to make a coarse relish.
• Slice the boule in half horizontally. Spread the tapenade evenly over both halves of the boule. Layer the cheese evenly over the tapenade on the bottom half of the boule. Place both top and bottom halves cut-side up beside each other on the sheet pan.
• Lay the hot hash browns on top of the cheese, then evenly pile on the corned beef. Bake the open sandwich until the cheese is melted and the corned beef is warmed through, 6 to 8 minutes.
• Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over low heat. Working with one egg at a time, crack each egg into a small bowl or ramekin and then slowly add it to the skillet. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook, uninterrupted, until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Season the eggs with pepper. Slide the eggs onto a plate.
• Top the corned beef with the sunny-side up eggs. Place the top piece of bread onto the sandwich. Cut into 4 wedges and serve.
