Tips That Helps Me A Lot!

Choosing the Right Bread: Opt for a poppy seed deli roll or a hero roll for the best texture and flavor. If these aren’t available, a seeded Italian or semolina loaf is a good substitute. Toast the bread lightly to add a bit of crunch and structure that will hold up to the filling without getting soggy.

Pepper Selection: Stick with green bell peppers and cubanelles for their robust, slightly bitter flavor, which balances beautifully with the eggs. Avoid sweeter peppers like red, yellow, or orange, as they can overwhelm the sandwich’s traditional taste. If you like a bit of heat, consider mixing in some sliced cherry peppers.

Egg Texture: To achieve the ideal texture, cook the eggs just until they’re set but still creamy. Overcooking will make them dry and less enjoyable. Remove them from the heat promptly to avoid carryover cooking, which can continue to cook the eggs even after they’re off the burner.

Cheese Addition: For a delicious twist, grate some block mozzarella and mix it in with the eggs towards the end of cooking. The cheese will melt into the eggs, adding a rich, gooey texture that enhances the sandwich.

Efficient Assembly: When making sandwiches for a smaller crowd, adjust the egg and pepper quantities accordingly. For a neater presentation and easier assembly, consider wrapping the eggs around the peppers and onions like an omelet. This technique makes it simpler to transfer the filling onto the bread without spilling.
