Butter 2 shallow 3-quart (9x13-inch) baking dishes. Spread bread over bottom and drizzle with butter. Sprinkle with Swiss and jack cheeses and salami.

Beat together eggs, milk, wine, green onions, mustard, pepper and red pepper until foamy. Pour over cheese. Cover dishes with foil, crimping edges. Refrigerate overnight. Remove from refrigerator about 30 minutes before baking. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Bake casseroles covered until set, about 1 hour. Uncover: spread with sour cream and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake, uncovered, until crusty and lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
