Gather and Prepare Ingredients

Time: PT2M
Slice the Bread
Using a serrated bread knife, cut the Italian loaf horizontally into two halves, leaving a hinge if you prefer a pocket style.
Time: PT3M
Chop Meats, Cheese, and Veggies
Coarsely chop salami, pepperoni, ham, provolone, lettuce, tomato, red onion, and bell pepper. Aim for bite‑size pieces with a bit of texture; avoid turning everything into a puree.

Make the Vinaigrette Dressing
In the mixing bowl, whisk together red wine vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, crushed red chili flakes, Italian seasoning, and Japanese mayonnaise until smooth.
Time: PT3M
Combine All Fillings
Add the chopped meats, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and bell pepper to the bowl with the dressing. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated but still has some bite.
Time: PT4M
Season the Bread
Drizzle a thin layer of extra virgin olive oil and a splash of red wine vinegar on the inner faces of the bread, then sprinkle a pinch of Italian seasoning.
Time: PT3M
Assemble and Serve
Spread the mixed filling evenly over the bottom half of the bread, then close the sandwich, press gently, and cut into manageable portions.
