1 lb. salami – sliced thin and cut into halves

1 – 1-1/2 lb. provolone cheese (aged and very dry) – cut into thin strips from a large block

1 large jar (16 oz.) roasted red peppers – cut into long thin slices

1 large jar (16 oz.) dill pickles – cut into long thin strips

2 cans hearts of palm – cut into long strips

2 small cans or 1 large can tuna

1 lg. onion – sliced thinly

2 cans hearts of artichoke – cut into 1/2’s or 1/4’s

1 regular can black olives, pitted

1 small jar green olives

1 small jar baby capers

Fresh parsley for garnish

 

Drain juices, reserving some of each in a large container. (Use lesser amounts of juice from capers and hearts of palm.) Cover a large (16 inch oval) platter with layers of each of the above ingredients in the order listed above. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until ready to serve. Use the reserved juices to make your dressing. Add a drop of olive oil and a drop of red wine vinegar. Shake vigorously. Dressing should be kept at room temperature. When ready to serve, remove antipasto from refrigerator and pour the dressing over the antipasto so that it is covered lightly. Serve the remaining dressing in a bottle or small pitcher. Serve the antipasto cold with fresh Italian or French bread.
