In the early 1900's, when the Italian population of New Orleans reached its peak, an Italian bakery produced a large, round loaf of bread. This bread was split and thinly layered with popular Italian cold cuts, quality boiled ham, Mortadella, Genoa salami, Provolone cheese and topped with Italian Olive Salad to create an over-stuffed sandwich called the "Muffuletta". Boscoli Family Italian Olive Salad is a medly of pickled cauliflower, carrots and celery, green olives, black olives and capers, combined with our special blend of spices and select 100% olive oil, still hand-made using our own 100 year old family recipe.
Today, Italian Olive Salad remains a most popular condiment on sandwiches and is used as a topping on Italian salads, in hot or cold pasta salads, potato salads, tuna salad, seafood salads, on pizza, bruscetta and antipasti.
As our Boscoli Family continued to grow, the product line expanded to include extra virgin olive oil, stuffed olives, giardiniera, sun dried tomatoes, a variety of pickled vegetables and capers.
