What type of bread is used for Philly cheesesteak?

A loaf of French bread is the traditional bread that is used for this cheesy bread. However, you can feel free to get creative if you can’t get your hands on a French loaf. A classic sub or a hoagie roll will certainly do in a pinch. The flavor of the steak, Worcestershire, and cheese is the star that shines in this dish!

What cheese is best for Philly cheesesteak?

Yet another great Philly cheesesteak debate: what cheese is best for the dish? I stick to provolone in this recipe, but white American cheese is a favorite, too. You can also consider white cheddar, mozzerlla or regular American cheese. Want to really lean into the heritage of the city of brotherly love? Try cheeze whiz, a true Philly staple!

Do you put mayo on Philly cheesesteak?

Mayonnaise is traditionally used in Philly cheesesteak recipes. If you’re looking to cut down on fats and calories, you can substitute for light mayo or forego it entirely. The creaminess of the cheese is enough to balance the bold flavors in this dish.

What sauce goes best on a cheesesteak?

You don’t need a particular sauce for cheesesteak, but aioli, A1 steak sauce, or even marinara sauce are all delicious if you’re looking to shake things up.  

How to serve Philly Cheesesteak Cheesy Bread?

Philly cheesesteak cheesy bread is best served hot alongside a cold beverage! This dish pairs excellently with French fries or something cool to cut the bold flavors and rich heat of the dish, such as potato salad or coleslaw.
