Ingredients

1 medium head cauliflower (about 1 1/2 pounds), cored and sliced 1/2-inch-thick
3 Tbsp. olive oil
3 Tbsp. sherry vinegar
1/4 cup golden raisins, chopped
8 cornichons, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
2 Tbsp. capers, roughly chopped
1 1/2 tsp. fennel seeds, toasted and crushed
1 cup flat-leaf parsley, chopped
8 mini ciabatta or other sandwich hoagie rolls
10 oz. thinly sliced salami
4 cups baby arugula

Directions

1. Step 1Fill a large pot with 1 inch water, insert a steamer basket, and bring to a boil. Add cauliflower; cover and steam, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain and transfer to a cutting board; roughly chop.
2. Step 2Combine oil, vinegar, raisins, cornichons, capers, fennel seeds, parsley, and chopped cauliflower in a bowl. Let stand, tossing occasionally, 30 minutes.
3. Step 3 Split rolls and scoop out insides of both tops and bottoms, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick shell. Top bottoms of rolls with 1/2 cup cauliflower relish. Top with salami and arugula, dividing evenly. Wrap sandwiches in parchment or plastic wrap and place in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Place a second baking sheet or plate on top and top with something heavy to weigh it down. Refrigerate for 4 hours or up to overnight. Serve with remaining cauliflower relish alongside.
