Sub Roll

  • Also Known As: Hoagies Roll
  • Also Known As: Italian Sub Roll

Suitable for Subs, Heros, Hoagies and Grinders

An American Sub Roll is a soft, golden sandwich roll shaped as an elongated cylinder with gently tapered torpedo ends. Made with high-protein bread flour, the dough develops a strong gluten network that gives the roll its signature chew and spring — firm enough to support stacked meats, cheeses and condiments, yet soft enough to compress comfortably when bitten. The crust remains thin and tender to avoid scraping the palate, while the interior forms a tight, dense, pillowy crumb that prevents oils, vinegars and dressings from seeping through the bread. - AsNotedIn
