The lattice top on this sandwich elevates it from a ho-hum meal to one that will win rave reviews. You can, of course, keep this super simple and layer the asparagus over the ham slices. If you opt for that approach, you may want to smear half of the mayonnaise mixture on the bread, layer on the ham, and then spread the remaining half of the mayonnaise mixture on the ham so that the asparagus spears have something to stick to and won’t be tempted to roll off. Sprinkle with thinly sliced chives or green onions, if you have some on hand.
