Sicilian Bread Question

In looking through my recipes for Muffaletta, one of them has the 
following statement:

 > The Bread: Muffuletta is actually a Sicilian word for a special 
round loaf of bread, baked so that the center is hollow and can 
be  stuffed... <

They go on to say to just use a 10" round loaf and hollow out the 
center yourself.

My question:  I realize I'm an amateur bread  baker, but I've never 
heard of a bread that can be baked so that it has a 
hollow  center.  Is there such a bread?

Thanks,
