  1. I know this tastes good but I have to object simply from an authentic point of view. I hope I don't offend anybody because this is just my opinion but being as this is suppose to be an Italian sub, it uses no Italian deli meats. Maybe the roast beef but more then likely not. If anything they would use Italian beef which is very different. They would not use turkey nor would they use regular deli ham. The ham closest to a deli ham like Black Forest, for ex. is called prosciutto cotto which in my opinion has more flavor. You can also substitute the ham for other Italian pork products like, deli porchetta which is so much better then ham and if you've never tried it, I urge you too..it's wonderful. You can also use capicollo or prosciutto de Parma in place of the ham. My favorite Italian sub combo is Genoa salami, porchetta and prosciutto de Parma all sliced very thin ..this is definitely a case where more is not better! Trust me on this..you can pile on as many slices as you want after but they definitely tastes much better sliced thin. And of course, provolone cheese. You can add whatever toppings or sandwich sauce to this you like. Personally, I think it needs something vinegary. Some of my favorites are hot or mild peppers in vinegar and oil or just in vinegar. Not roasted peppers though they're good too..but the whole uncooked peppers that are in a jar. The vinager is perfect and you get some crunch to it if you get the whole ones and slice them yourself. Making a salad by dicing up some tomatoes,onions and lettuce and dressing them in an Italian vinagerette or using oil and your favorite vinegar is good too. You can also add a touch of oregano, salt and pepper to it. And my favorite (and yes I realize it's not very Italian) is to add salt and vinager chips to it. It gives you that satisfying crunch that all subs need and adds the perfect amount of vinegar and salt. You could use other flavors if you wanted to but I think salt and vinegar is really the best for this sandwich. Again, this is just my opinion and I'm sorry, I didn't mean to carry on like this but I've made myself hungry..lol. So now I'm off to make my own Italian sub! Bon Appetite!
     
  2. A key to a great Italian sub is to first get delicious footlong+ buns. Then place them open face on a tray. Cover one half with genoa salami, capicola, mortadella(better italian bologna), then provolone. On top of the cheese I put a bit of pepperoni and then sliced onion. On the other half place the thinly sliced tomatoes. Season with Italian seasonings, salt and pepper and a touch of olive oil. Bake at 350 to 375F about 12-14 minutes. After removing from the oven add shredded lettuce and more oil and vinegar or an italian dressing of your choice. Delicious every time.
     
  3. This is sooooo good. I added shredded iceberg lettuce before baking then topped with mayo, salt and pepper when it came out of the oven. Thanks for posting!
     
  4. Quick and delicious. I used a local restaurant's greek dressing and topped with provolone, genoa salami and roast beef. Topped with roasted red pepper and banana pepper since I can't tolerate raw onion and tomatos are out of season. Delicious! Ours didn't turn out soggy, but I would recommend cooking for the full time to heat all the way through.
     
  5. I have made these various times with whatever meats I have on hand. They may not satisfy the authentic crowd, but we like them!! Knightgoddess, thanks for sharing your great recipe! Update: Today is 11/16/23. This is what we are having for dinner tonight. Gasp, I'm using bolillo rolls. I have ham, roast beef, purple onion, provolone and the seasonings. No tomato. They will be delicious!
