Anyone with a reputation for great sandwich making out there?
Need some for an afternoon tea so would be nice to have a few different ideas. Thanks!

cucumber and cream cheese; cream cheese, apricot and chicken; salmon and cream cheese; cheese &pineapple, ham & egg, egg & chive,thinly sliced beef and chutneys,corned beef & pickle,chopped bacon and brown sauce, any of these combined in layers over salad ingredients. i.e 1 layer of salad 1 layer of other ingredients. In club sandwiches always choose fillings which will add colour i.e finely grated carrot, tomato, egg. When using salad ingredients, layer the mayo *(thinly) on the bread, as this helps lettuce etc to stick, to keep the shape of the sandwich so that it doesn't fall apart.

I like club sandwiches to have a good colour...
and so will bring some frozen peas to the boil, and then turn them off, and when slightly cool, puree them (with butter) - and use that as a sandwich filling - they are a great flavour and colour

like knna, I do salmon and cream cheese - and roll them like an aspargus roll...
in the same format, chicken which has been minced (in the food processor) with mayo, and served with sprouts also go down well

You need the sprouts for some colour

oops apologies for the typing, should say thinly sliced beef or meats. If doing the ham rolls you have to grate the cheese finely and mix to a paste with mayo, or use creamor cottage cheese.

kinna54- At the risk of sounding stupid is a pinwheel sandwich different to a roll? I know what you mean by rolling the bread like anasparagus roll, but is a pinwheel done differently and if so how? Also what is the brown sauce with the bacon?

cream cheese and salmon, lettuce, tom, cucumber, egg mix, cream cheese and diced apricot and crystalised ginger, ham, any combination of these... marg all the loaf of bread first and then build you stacks: fist slice a spread filling, then put your next piece of bread on marg side up and put on say tom, lettuce or cuc, then next piece marg side up and last filling, ham or egg say then next piece of bread (the top one) marg side down.then trim off the crusts and cut into either sq's, triangles or rectangles... quick, yum and look brill...
when you lay them out on the plates/tray's etc alternate your tom and cuc ones to get good colour....

sorry just got back on here. yes a pinwheel sandwich is different to a roll . For a pinwheel sandwhich you cut the crusts off the bread, lay 3 slices buttered breadin a long row, with the edges of each piece overlapping each other,and roll the edges lightly with a rolling pin to seal and bind the edges together. Hope you can make sense of this?You place the flillings horizontally along the roll and just roll up like a tube.Cut a tiny bit of each end if necessary to tidy up or straighten, then you cut the roll into pieces, usually about 3 pieces per roll. Best way to describe the finished product is to say it looks a bit like sushi, only a lot more colorful. Hope you can understand my explanation.

Brown sauce with the bacon is a pommy favourite. Personally I don't like it, but it was always a favourite seller in my cafe. The flavour is something between a smoky hickory taste and bbq sauce taste. You can buy it in a bottle think it may be a branston or whitlocks brand? You could use another sauce favourite instead, or use a honey mustard dressing, or a dijon mustard.

Also pays to butter bread thinly on both sides when doing the middle layer of club sandwiches.for a variation try pinwheel sandwiches *they are easy* or for interesting variations using the frilly lettuce you can do chicken mayo and lettuce rolls; salmon cream cheese and lettuce rolls; ham, grated cheese, lettuce and mayo rolls. Simply place the filling on a slice of bread (crusts off) and roll cornerwise as in making an asparagus roll. Enjoy experimenting, I'm sure they will be yummy.
