Tips and Tricks for This Recipe Swaps and substitutions How to Make Tie Dye Eggplant Parmesan Sandwich Provolone cheese – Provolone is a semi-soft Italian cheese with a mild flavor and smooth, creamy texture similar to low-moisture mozzarella. Vodka sauce – This rich and creamy tomato based sauce rounds out the trio of flavorful sauces on this sub. Marinara sauce – My homemade marinara sauce recipe is made with a few ingredients – canned tomatoes, onions, garlic and herbs. Pesto – I prefer to use homemade basil pesto, which can easily be made in a food processor using my recipe here, though store-bought works just fine!. If your grocery store doesn’t have great options, I recommend asking if you can purchase the rolls from the sandwich counter or at your local sandwich shop! Italian sub roll – Because this sandwich is filled with sauces, the ideal sub roll is sturdy yet chewy. They absorb less oil than Italian breadcrumbs which makes for a crisp, crunchy texture. Panko breadcrumbs – Panko, or Japanese breadcrumbs, are light and airy. The eggplant is first laid out on paper towels and salted to draw the moisture out before it is dredged and fried. 
I cut them lengthwise to layer the long slices in the pan and peel them for a creamier, consistent texture. Eggplant – In this recipe I use globe eggplant as it’s the typical oblong eggplant found at most grocery stores.
