Italian Pepper and Egg Sandwich Recipe

There's nothing better than a pepper and egg sandwich on either hero rolls or round hard rolls! The oily peppers (used bell and Italian frying peppers) and onions are the perfect match for the soft scrambled eggs. I made a traditional pepper and egg hero and also showed how it can be made with some spicy cherry peppers and mozzarella to make it even better. I hope you enjoy this New York classic!

I'm not Italian and I never had a pepper and egg sandwich at home as I was growing up. But, early in my work life, I had a co-worker whose dear Italian mom always sent him to work with an enormous pepper and egg sub. One particular day, we didn't have much time for lunch and there was nothing around, so he offers me half of his pepper and egg sub. I gratefully/politely accepted, but silently thought it would be underwhelming. God, was I wrong. There is something amazingly comforting and wonderful about Italian pepper and egg sandwiches. (When I met this lady years later, I couldn't help but kiss, hug, and thank her for the sandwiches. I live in a place where there aren't a lot of ethnic Italian eateries, so I don't find them much. This video makes me want to go to the kitchen and make one right now. Great video. Thanks for sharing.

[@SipandFeast]

Great story! It's so easy to underestimate this sandwich. I don't know what it is but the flavor combo is just perfect. There is something about this sandwich that instantly brings me back in time. I think I need to make one this weekend!

I'm an italian in Italy and I never heard of such panino frankly. It could be one of the many italian american food tha as you all well know evolved trought the emigrants over there but unknown by us such

I worked for a restaurant in 70s, we served 1000s of these!

[@jerryoshea3116]

@@paponeable A natural evolution,because maybe at one time,certain authentic Italian ingredients weren't available to the immigrants here,so they had to learn to improvise&make do! And then of course through the different generations things changed,maybe were watered down a little?. .But it's the Italian American experience..different to the European one of course,,but still valid and relevant!

[@paponeable]

@@jerryoshea3116 Hi Jerry. Frankly I disagree: italians emigrated all over, we had bilateral agreements with various Countries during those days. Argentina, Brasil, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, USA, New Zealand, Australia etc etc etc . We went all over. I wouldn't call it " natural evolution ", it didn't happen everywhere else! anywhere else and bare in mind that I travel truly all around the world for work..., Italians ( among them some of my families ancestors ) tried to keep their culinary traditions as italian as possible, they were even making at the beginning their food products that they couldn't find back then ( just think about little Italy and the mozzarella, prosciutto, salami, sousages, tomatoes in cans etc etc etc that they still makes nowadays... ), a natural " process " , which is not an evolution ..., would have been " some " changings throught generations due to obvious reasons. But in the USA we cannot talk of evolution, you did it with every kind of culinary traditions and not only. You won't find anywhere else recipies that claims to be italians when in Italy they never exixted! Fully invented over there with the italian sounding... And I do wonder why! Personally I do have some ideas on why that happened in the USA but obviosly they're only personal suggestions.

[@TopoGigio555]

I absolutely love the idea of removing some of the breading inside the roll. Ingenious!

[@puckhead1909]

Growing up on Staten Island we would go to Cub Scout meetings at peoples houses (yeah they did that) one of the kids mother Mrs Barretta would make these for the group man did we devour them. The first time we tried them a couple of the kids swore they didn't like eggs but she said just try it. They liked eggs after that. We always looked forward to going to Paul's house from then on. We even learned how to make pasta from scratch. Real life skills!!!

My father made these for us growing up. Sometimes my dad would add some sweet Italian sausage, too. I could eat those any meal in the day.

[@paulwayne9695]

Of course growing up Italian, these sandwiches were in regular rotation, especially in the summer with peppers fresh from the garden. We used to have peppers and eggs for dinner sometimes, usually on Fridays due the the old catholic “no meat on Friday” rule. Potato and egg sandwiches too. I wouldn’t mind seeing a video on that.

This is not exclusive to the NY area. My 4'11" Sicilian mother used to make these for me and we lived in Chicago. She's been gone since I was 9 yrs. old....and when I start feeling sad thinking about her and my dad, I turn to this. It is my favorite comfort food of all time. As I grew older and had kids, I made this for them and now I make it for my grands. I'm sure she's watching over us and is happy I make these for everyone.

[@shyamdevadas6099]

I discovered them in the Baltimore area. One of my favorite pizza places makes a very soft, crust. They use it to make pocket bread, with which they make their pepper egg sandwiches. The best!

My mom passed away in February at 93. She would make potatoes, onions and eggs and peppers, onions and eggs all the time. Occasionally she would combine the two. She would have loved your recipies and your videos. 😀 I miss her and you made me remember a beautiful memory. Thank you.

[@SipandFeast]

Potato egg is definitely a great one! I hear what you are saying regarding this type of food. Part of the reason I made this channel was to showcase the Italian-American food that I and so many others grew up eating.

[@Mainecoonlady.]

Looking through your videos, this stands out for me. My Mom made these on Fridays. No meat back then. My Dad’s favorite. She used the Italian frying peppers or cubanelles. Only time she used green bell was for stuffed peppers. Mom used peppers, onions, eggs, fresh parsley and a ton of grated Romano cheese. OMG…. Such heaven. Every mom and pop pizzeria makes the 12 inch sandwich. My family is from Staten Island, moved to NJ in the 50s. With background in Calabria, Naples and Abruzzi, your cooking really takes me back to Sunday dinners, grandpa’s homemade wine and nanny’s pastas. They are all gone now. I live in the south east, not a cubanelle pepper in sight. I miss them and I miss being Italian. ❤️

[@donnagarthe3696]

Everything you make feels like home. Not everything is exact, but very close, and you acknowledge and respect those minor differences or preferences we all have. I love pepper and egg or asparagus and egg heroes. Growing up on Long Island, I didn't realize how unique the food I regularly enjoyed was. Many recipes are unique to where we grew up in NY/Long Island Italian households, but what great food we grew up with! And, I regularly make them and share them with my family passing down the recipes to this day. I'm working on a family cookbook. It just feels important to pass on the favorites. Thank you for sharing yours!

[@ursousa]

Over the years I have watched so many cooking shows on KZbin that I've lost count and at some point every one sort of melds into one big Food show. You...you bring me back to my upbringing . You take me to traditions I grew up with. My mother, her sisters my father..all amazing cooks. Everything you make has so much meaning to me its actually emotional . Peppers and eggs , took me on a journey I wish I could repeat. But alas the people I loved who nurtured me and cooked like this are all gone. Thank you for doing what you do. It means so much to those of us who see food as more than sustenance ..its so much more.

[@SipandFeast]

Thanks very much! I'm glad that these recipes are connecting and bringing you back. I learned a lot from my Grandmother before she wasn't allowed to cook anymore. We had to turn off the gas to her stove. Probably a common story. She made this recipe all the time.

[@rustybearden1800]

I'm born and raised in South Carolina and I lived and worked in the Greater NYC/tri state area for over twenty years - I knew Italian food before I moved there but truly became enamoured of the astonishingly wide variety of the preparations and styles from all over Italy as well as the classic Italian American dishes. A freshly made Pepper and Egg wedge (sorry - hoagie, grinder, sub, wedge - that's how it was first introduced to me) on incredible fresh baked bread with melty provolone and mozzarella, oozing olive oil - OMG. I remember walking into my local pizzeria (three doors down from my apartment building, a 1900 era three story walkup) and waiting to order something and this older Italian guy was standing there waiting and watching as his Pepper and Egg sandwich was being made. I noticed as the cook griddled the red and green peppers, toasted the bread and lovingly folded the giant egg omelette overflowing with cheese and peppers into the warm, fragrant bread and handed it to the customer who turned around, sat down at a formica table and proceeded to devour it between slurps of a double espresso. I had to order one after that and fell in love. To this day, aside from real NYC pizza and freshly made mozzarella, a Pepper and Egg wedge is the one thing I get the most nostalgic for. Thank you for taking me back in time. You rock, my friend!

I didn’t eat eggs when I was younger. When I was at my first duty station in the Army, a seasoned NCO taught me to make Jalapeño Egg Sandwiches. That sandwich started me eating eggs and has become a favorite with everyone I’ve cooked for. A little different than this version but close enough to remind me how good those sandwiches were. Thanks for the reminder.

My paternal Nonna often made potato, pepper and egg frittata sandwiches or as we grew up calling them, frittata panini, in Italian. She pan fried thinly sliced potatoes with sweet and hot Italian peppers and whisked eggs, seasoned with Mediterranean sea salt and freshly ground black pepper in extra virgin olive oil. After frying, she finished it off in the oven so that the top, if still wet, was properly cooked. The last thing any self respecting Italian wants to bite into is wet frittata on a mushy panino. Then, on a freshly baked Italian long bun, she would layer the frittata and grate some parmigiano reggiano cheese. This panino is an Italian classic and one of the most flavourful sandwiches ever eaten! 🇮🇹🇨🇦

I lived in Brooklyn and later in Central Jersey (Manalapan).When my mom packed our lunch for Yankees games (I got so happy when you said that because it brought me back to a 78 doubleheader against Minnesota at the Stadium - so much fun with my dad and brother!), I cannot remember what kind of sandwiches she would cook and pack! It was always good, that is all I remember. LOL

My Mom used to make it into an omelet. Flipping a huge omelet was always an entertaining show of culinary talent! She never missed!!!

You are a sandwich master! And you share my love of cherry peppers….which, damn, I never thought of having on a pepper and egg. Pure genius!…..how bout a bit of Italian sausage in it?

[@gregkeller80]

I commented too early….your wife is a genius with the cherry peppers!

Western Pennsylvania guy here. All my grandparents came here from Italy. Been eating these since I could chew. Like mine with a little ketchup. No cheese, no cherry peppers, just ketchup. And it gotta be Heinz.

I had pepper and egg sandwiches growing up, I also make my own to this day. One thing he forgot was garlic and extra olive oil, wonderful 👍
