Beef On "Weck" (Kummelweck)
Alt.cooking-chien/Calvin Y. Konno/2000

Brush a mixture of cornstarch and water on the top of ordinary Kaiser rolls. Over cornstarch-water mixture, sprinkle equal amounts of caraway seeds and pretzel salt. Heat in a 350 degree oven for about 3 minutes, long enough for the top of the rolls to get crusty and for the caraway seeds and salt to stick.

Serve a beef round roast or your favorite roast beef on the rolls, sliced as desired. Top with your favorite horseradish (freshly grated or prepared), and dip the inside of the top half of the roll in an au jus sauce just before serving. (Packets of au jus mix can be found in the gravy section of the spice aisle in most supermarkets.)
