Notes
- Tips and Tricks for Success
- Grinder Sandwich Variations
- Placing the salad in the center of the grinder sandwich will help prevent the bread roll from becoming soggy.
- Don't slice the tomato slices too thin or it will make the sandwich too wet.
- Soak the red onions in water for about 10 minutes before tossing it into the salad mixture. This will take away some of the sharp, acidity of the red onions.
- Use thinly sliced romaine lettuce instead of iceberg lettuce.
- Switch up the cured meats in the sandwich based on personal preference. Other meats we like to use are roasted turkey, prosciutto, Spanish chorizo, and pepperoni.
- Use other types of cheese such as havarti, mozzarella, fontina, and Swiss.
- If pepperoncinis and cherry peppers are too spicy for you, swap them out with chopped pickles, cornichons or even olives.
- If you're not into the creamy salad mixture, replace the sauce with a couple tablespoons of our red wine vinaigrette!
