Instructions
Make the Spread.
Bring the vinegar, water, salt, sugar, and mustard seeds to a boil in a medium saucepan. Remove from the heat and allow to cool enough to handle the liquid.
Meanwhile, mix the prepared vegetables together in a large bowl. Spoon the vegetables into a large mason jar with a tight-fitting lid.
Carefully pour the hot liquid over the vegetables.
Allow the jar to come to room temperature.
Screw the lid on tightly and refrigerate for at least 3 hours. 24 hours is even better.
Make the hoagie dressing.
In a medium jar, add the oil, vinegar, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Shake until combined. Set aside.
Assemble the sandwiches.
Slice the hoagie rolls lengthwise, if necessary.
Drizzle both sides of the roll lightly with the hoagie dressing.
Layer the cheese and meats neatly on the bottom roll.
Top each sandwich with 2 tablespoons of the hoagie spread, lettuce, and tomato slices.
Lightly drizzle the hoagie dressing over the tomatoes.
Place the top half of the bread and press down to allow the dressing and spread flavorings to soak into the bread.
Cut in half and serve immediately.
