For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the meatball mixture. Ensure not to overmix the meatball mixture, as this can result in tough meatballs. Mix just until the ingredients are combined. If you prefer a crispier baguette, toast it for a longer duration, keeping a close watch to prevent burning. Experiment with different cheeses, such as mozzarella or fontina, for a unique twist on this classic sandwich.
