The New York Italian Hero. Whether you call it a deli-style Italian sub, hoagie, grinder, or whatever, I call it absolutely delicious! To make a good one you need good quality Italian cold cuts. For this classic Italian hero, we added capicola (also known as gabagool, coppa, cappy), salami, pepperoni, Boar's Head ham, and provolone cheese. Topped with a delicious oil and vinegar dressing, shredded lettuce mix, onions, tomatoes, and cherry peppers, this deli sub has it all! I hope you enjoy this Italian sandwich! This is the first episode in the Italian hero/sandwich series.

wrapping the sandwich is the most overlooked step people NEVER do at home because why would you wrap a sandwich in your kitchen that your going to eat right there, but it gets everything in the sandwich to compress down and tightens up the whole package, critical finishing touch.

@darkprose 2 года назад

I wrap mine and chill them thoroughly in the fridge. Not sure why, I just love cold subs. Sometimes I put heavy jars on top of them for even more compression.

I retired to NC.,when I miss long Island, a lot of the time I'm thinking about the deli's (Woodrows was a treat), then I remember the winters and snow shoveling and blowing. So I source my ingredients and make my own. Luckily the people that own the Pizza parlor I use lived in Suffolk County and ran shops in Brooklyn and Queens A pie cost 3 times as much then Papa Johns, Dominoes, and Marcos. But it's worth it. I also learned how to turn a corned beef brisket, into a pastrami., It takes 6 hrs but it's worth it.

I’m a huge sandwich lover. I could quite literally eat one for breakfast, lunch, and dinner every day of my life and never get tired of them. The endless variety of ingredients makes it one of the most versatile foods on the planet. While people have tried to do the same with pizza, it is nowhere near as simple as the good old sandwich. Italian Hero is one of the best ever. Thanks for sharing!

@ramencurry6672 2 месяца назад

Those sandwiches are actually based on cold cuts that’s easy to find. Back in the old days like in the 1970s, exotic meats were not that common in America so those sandwiches are based on the classic designs. The hardest part is actually finding the right bread if you live far away from the northern east coast.

@B__C 2 года назад

Living in the Philly area, I've had MANY Italian subs/hoagies. It's one of my favorite sandwiches. In my opinion, the bread makes the sandwich, so a seeded roll is a must. I roast Italian long hot peppers in olive oil, with basil, and garlic and spread that on the sandwich.

@timstradley5819 2 года назад

Doesn’t need to be seeded but yeah the bread is key.

@Im2Old4ThisShite 2 года назад

All of us philly folks say the same thing....it's all about the bread, and after having subs all over the world that flaunt the "philly" label, it is the truth. My personal preference is Amoroso (go figure), but my favorite hoagie is from "Lee's", in Glenside and I've no idea what bread they use but it's perfect). I haven't been back home since 1982 and I sure hope I can get just one more before I die.

@Camie.in.Philly 2 года назад

Don't forget you must reflect the tilt. A sub and hoagie are very similar but we used good old fashion Amish rolls, mayo and oil (without the vinegar) and how you stack it makes a difference. We center the food in the middle of the roll along the cut line so when you close it it's sitting upright. We hold it in that upright position and tilt the head to bite. That's how I tell New Yorkers from Philly born. We respect the tilt lol

It’s definitely an important skill to learn. An essential. Because many times, it’s not quite right and you have better control of fine tuning the nuances. . It is a bit of a pain to prep the ingredients though but after some practice it gets easier

@farmerbob4554 2 года назад

I like that you rinsed the onion, dressed the lettuce as well as the sandwich, made a boat out of the bread and used deli-sliced cold cuts. Hard to find but I like good Mortadella on mine to get a little of that “livery” flavor. A+ on your version Chef!

@SipandFeast 2 года назад

@trublgrl 2 года назад

In the New York Area, you generally find the seeded hero rolls are made with semolina, and the seedless ones are made with plain flour. Semolina is great on a hero if it's fresh, but it gets dense and heavy if it sits all day. White hero bread is more forgiving, but semolina does taste better. Hey, Isn't "Calandra" the name of an Italian Bakery? You must know your bread!

Here in Little Perth, Western Australia we have the continental roll, or “Conti roll”, which is a Perth institution and consists of mixed continental meats (typically mortadella, coppa, and salami, a strong tasting ham), usually provolone cheese, and Italian-style pickled vegetables layered into a crusty roll. You could only get in in two stores in the 50-the 60s (coinciding with Fresh off the boats Italians & Greeks etc), the ones that originated them. Now, many places sell them. Also, side-note... any sandwich made in a roll is called _____ roll ie Ham & Salad roll here

At home I use a combination of mayonnaise mixed with a little Ceasars dressing from the main spread. Oil and vinegar always. Oregano a must. Lettuce and onion. My local market has an Italian meat kit that has all the salami, ham etc...fair price. Only their sub they make prepared isn't half as good as mine. Always wrap it and also add a good olive on the sub. Its called a delicacy for a reason. Make it with some tlc and its always a treat. Thank you Italian culture.

I might suggest one more step: Either A - Don't cut it until you let the sammy rest for like, five to ten minutes in the paper, or B - Cut it and then wrap the whole thing in another piece of butcher paper. Giving the sandwich a little time to squeeze together, deform all the separate bits into a more cohesive whole, and to let that bread soak in the oil and vinegar, it makes a big difference. I feel like a hero definitely tastes better when you get it home than if you eat it right by the deli.

My thoughts on this "friendly observation" hmmmm who cares... it's his knife. Then I watched the full clip - Changed my mind: Please sharpen your knife!!! ☺😁😉 - but looks stunning. I am going to make it myself tonight. Thanks for sharing!

It definitely needed a sharpening.

calling it a hero outside the NY area gives you some strange looks, i just learned to always say sub now.

Growing up in Long Beach NY I ate these wonderful subs all the time. I found an Italian deli here in Fresno CA that makes them the same way. Delisioso

That sandwich is a work of art. Straight 🔥!!!!

@mrmike9793 Год назад

Hot capicola, Genoa salami, provolone, hot peppers, topped with leftover pasta sauce and baked in the oven. Two Italian brothers who owned a sandwich shop in my hometown introduced me to that one. I make that sandwich whenever I have leftover sauce.

Back when I was working carpentry in the 90's - 2008 my boss and I used to always get E & V Bastone to make our subs. Loved the crust.

Another great video. I love how you take pride in your regional foods. I am from the deep South and I am proud of our cuisine as well.

I feel it's really important to embrace our heritage. I just make the food, mostly Italian-American, that New Yorkers know and love.

It's nice to see someone who still shows the food prep these days 😃 It used to be a part of all the cooking shows on TV I used to watch and can also be relaxing to see IMO. I enjoy watching these parts and it can also be educational to see how others prepare things because I can sometimes learn a better way from this. But I guess most folks these days want to make shorter videos because everyone is in a hurry 😐
