Flavors of Soda at New York Deli
Sub sandwiches are one of the most popular types of sandwiches in the world, and they’re probably one of the best. They offer a nice balance between the softness of a baguette with a crunchy bread and the melting cheese of a sandwich.
The two main varieties are:
Sub Sandwiches – Named after how they were originally served as sandwiches on bread, these are made by thinly slicing open a baguette or roll and piling different ingredients onto it.
These toppings include:
Antipasto (small pieces of salami, mortadella, capicola, provolone cheese)
Vegetarian Sub sandwiches – These use vegetables instead of meat in an attempt to reduce cholesterol intake. Vegetarian sub sandwiches typically use tofu as well as vegetables like spinach, cucumbers, mushrooms or tomatoes.
These toppings include:
Bread (grated cheese is sometimes used)
Vegetables/Fruit (usually tomatoes or cucumbers)
Meat/Cheese (cheese is also sometimes used)
The other popular combination is with lettuce, tomato and pickles on some variations called “submarine” but most commonly simply called “sub”. Vegan sub sandwiches are also available using vegan cheeses instead of dairy cheeses like Daiya cheddar cheese or Vegenaise with almond cream instead of mayonnaise.
The Way NY Deli Does Subs
Sandwiches are a staple of the American diet. In fact, Americans consume more sandwiches than any other food group. Thirteen percent of calories consumed in the United States are filled with sandwiches alone, which makes them the second most popular food group after pizza.
When it comes to great subs, we’ve got you covered. I personally love our Virginia Sub the most, with its roast beef, ham, and bacon. Some of our specialty subs include the Gringo, the Veggie, and even Parmigiana subs!
You may want to change up the ingredients or see if you can incorporate something new into this classic dish. The possibilities are endless and every sandwich is unique, so you should find a recipe that fits your tastes.
