Notes
Storage – For maximum freshness, store the components separately. Assemble just before serving.
Texture Matters – Always choose fresh rolls. Stale bread can ruin the experience.
Temperature Check – For great melt-in-your-mouth beef, warm it gently before assembling.
Experiment with Flavors – Swap out the horseradish for spicy aioli if that’s more your style.
Layering – Pay attention to how you layer ingredients. It can affect how you taste each component.
