• If you're on a budget, adjust this method to use large yeast hot dog rolls, cut into thirds (you may need to adjust the baking time).
• Horseradish mayonnaise is easy to make at home, but there are decent commercial varieties to use as a shortcut.
• You can use regular mayonnaise if you need to avoid horseradish.

• Just be sure it is sliced very thin and use a high-grade, low-moisture ham for best results.
