I have been asked to bring sandwiches to a gathering and was wondering what would make really tasty fillings that would withstand a travel time of a couple of hours. I would consider egg, cheese and smoked sliced salmon only as the main fillings as we personally don’t eat other meats. I am thinking what I could add to make the fillings extra tasty. I had chicken with finely chopped walnuts recently and those sandwiches were very nice. Any suggestions?

Make some miso butter by mashing a little miso with the butter. Or spread just one slice of the bread with a little miso instead of butter. The same can be done with tahini. Both are full of umami and pair with various things like cheese, salmon, etc. Add some lettuce or other salad 'greens' for colour.
I like asparagus rolls.,

If you are looking at a chicken sandwich then we have a whole new feature on variations.
The Best Chicken Sandwich
Otherwise I would suggest asparagus rolls with aioli or club sandwiches...
Covered with a damp tea towel or the damp paper towels and the dreaded clingfilm they will be fine for a good few hours.

Thanks For the link, Helen. I’ve got my fillings ready. Egg with Best Foods mayonnaise on sandwich Molenberg with white Miso flavoured butter à la Lorna; grated tasty cheese with mayo and chives and very thinly sliced tomato, butter without flavour; and also shredded chicken finely chopped walnuts and mayo on buttered bread. My electric knife died a while ago but I hope that my sharpest knife will do the job. Damp tea towels are chilling in the fridge.

I hate egg sandwiches that have mayonnaise in them. My mum always used chives, salt and pepper and a drop of cream to bind. I always ask if the egg sandwiches have mayonnaise in them, if yes I buy something else.
I bought A taste of Te Horo cook book at a charity shop I volunteer at - and found this recipe for a sandwich filling
Nana's cold spread (sandwich filling).
1 onion chopped
1 tabs butter
salt and pepper to taste
4oz cheese, grated
1 egg
Beat egg. Add to other ingredients. Cook mixture in saucepan, stirring constantly. Looks like scrambled egg.
I made it and have used it for toasted sandwiches and its yumm.
cheers Gran

Re the pathogens, while I am quite paranoid re food poisoning I do send chicken pesto pasta and chicken rolls in lunch boxes to school.
According to my dietician friend she thinks we are too cautious with cooked chicken and that lunch boxes kept in a cloak bay at school are usually cool enough for food to be fine...
Thoughts?

I actually agree with you Helen, although for a lunch I'd probably put a frozen drink or pack in. I always bring my chicken to room temp before I cook it, but I've got a friend who is horrified at the thought, so when she's here for dinner I have to hide where the chicken is so she doesn't see. She always says my chicken is awesome and tender, but I can't tell her my secret!
