amazing autostrada panini


when i used to work at la brea bakery, my favorite panini was the autostrada because it was so intense in flavor, spicy and just so delicious with all my favorite cured meats.  since i no longer get the "kara gets everything free" discount at la brea bakery, i put together an autostrada recipe...so please try it and enjoy!


ingredients:
- 8 slices sourdough bread (i recommend la brea bakery's sourdough!)
- butter at room temperature
- 8 slices aged provolone 
- 8 slices mortadella 
- 8 slices coppa 
- 8 slices dry salami or soppressata
- 4 slices prosciutto 
- 3 jarred marinated cherry peppers, finely chopped and blended into a paste with a back of a wooden spoon

directions:
- preheat panini grill to medium
- generously butter each slice of bread 
- layer a couple slices of provolone, mortadella, coppa, salami and prosciutto on four slices
- spread the cherry pepper paste to the other four slices
- assemble the cherry pepper slices on top of the meats
- grill on the panini for about 5-8 minutes or until golden and crisp
- serve immediately and enjoy!
