Hot Salami Baguettes Recipes

Steps:

• Split the baguette open and lightly brush with oil, then season lightly with salt and pepper. Thinly slice the roasted pepper. Layer on the prosciutto, provolone, basil, red pepper, balsamic glaze and salami. Top with the top half of the baguette. (Layering the meat on the bottom and top of the sandwich prevents the fillings from soaking through and making the bread soggy.)
• Put a bowl or other heavy object (such as a large can or jar) on the sandwich to press it for 1 hour before serving. Or, pack it in the bottom of your lunchbox, under a glass container or drink.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180 degree celsius.
• Combine, butter, salami, tomato pesto, parsley and parmesan cheese in a bowl and mix well.
• Slice baguette/s into approximately 1.5cm slices, but don't cut all the way through.
• Spread salami butter in between slices and then wrap baguette/s in foil.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
• OR if preferred place the foil wrapped baquette/s on a heated barbecue place for about 20 minutes, turning often until heated through.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Partially slice the salami into 1/4-inch thick slices, making sure the cuts do not go all the way through. Place the salami into the prepared baking dish, and bake for 1 hour. Drain off the grease.
• Mix the barbecue sauce and brown sugar together in a bowl, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Pour about 2 cups of the sauce over the salami, and retain the rest for basting. Return the salami to the oven and bake for 45 minutes more, basting occasionally with the reserved sauce. Serve on a platter with a knife so guests can cut their own slices.

Steps:

• Slice the baguette in half lengthways and hollow out (make crumbs from the bread centre and save for another recipe). Spread the bottom half with the pesto. Slice the tomato and layer it over the pesto. Slice the mozzarella and add in a layer over the tomato.
• Finish with layers of spinach and basil, plus the salami, folded in half if necessary to fit the width of the baguette.
• Wrap in baking parchment, tie with string and pop in the fridge weighted under something heavy (we used a hefty griddle pan). Leave for at least 1 hr (or overnight if you like). The flavours will mingle and the sandwich will flatten down, making it a doddle to cut up without all the ingredients falling out all over your picnic rug.
