2 large eggs
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon salt
Dip the sandwiches
Carefully dip one sandwich into the egg mixture, rolling it gently to coat it completely before letting the excess egg drip back into the bowl. Dip the sandwich into the bowl of bread crumbs and roll it around gently to coat. Shake excess bread crumbs back into the bowl. Place the coated sandwich on a June Air Basket set over a June Pan to catch any crumbs. Repeat with the remaining three sandwiches.
