ITALIAN SUB SANDWICH RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Make the pickled cherry pepper spread: In the base of a small food processor, add all of the ingredients. Pulse the mixture a few times until everything is puréed to a chunky consistency. Transfer the mixture to a small bowl and reserve for later.
• Make the red wine vinaigrette: In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients, except for the olive oil. Slowly stream in the olive oil, whisking constantly to ensure that the dressing emulsifies. Season the mixture with salt and pepper; set aside for later.
• Assemble the sandwich: On a sheet pan, toast the hoagie roll for 5 minutes. Slice the roll lengthwise without going all the way through. Open the roll and spread the mayonnaise evenly on the top and bottom layers, followed by the pickled cherry pepper spread. Shingle the salami across the bottom half, followed by the mortadella, prosciutto, provolone and tomatoes. Add the pepperoncini; sprinkle with the parsley, oregano and rosemary; and spread the iceberg lettuce across the top. Drizzle with the red wine vinaigrette, then season with salt and pepper. Slice in half and serve right away.

ITALIAN MINI SUB SANDWICHES WITH HOMEMADE SUB SAUCE

Steps:

• For sandwiches: Divide meat, cheese, peppers and arugula between the four rolls. Drizzle with homemade sub sauce and enjoy! If your subs will not be eaten right away, wait to add the sub sauce until right before you plan on eating them. A quick note on Italian meats: Prosciutto is a salty very thinly sliced Italian ham. Sweet sopressata is a dry cured salami. Hot capicola is a spicy cooked or dried pork meat. All can be found in the deli section of your grocery store. For Sub Sauce: Combine all ingredients except olive oil. Whisk together and then slowly whisk in olive oil until combined. Adjust seasonings to taste and store in refrigerator.
