  • Don't skimp on the fillings: The fillings are what make a submarine sandwich special. Be generous with the meats, cheeses, and vegetables.
  • Add a flavorful sauce: A good sauce can really take a submarine sandwich to the next level. Try a classic Italian dressing, a creamy Caesar dressing, or a spicy marinara sauce.
  • Toast the bread: Toasting the bread will help it to hold up to the fillings and sauce. You can toast the bread in a toaster oven, on a griddle, or in a panini press.
  • Serve immediately: Submarine sandwiches are best served immediately after they are made. The bread will quickly become soggy if you wait too long.
