White albacore tuna in water. ( 16 oz.)

Chopped onions. 

Grated hard boiled eggs about 4

Sweet pickle relish.

Season  with  Old Bay. 

Mix with mayonnaise. 

Chill several hours.

Serve  as a protein with  other food  or as a sandwich.  

Lately  I have used  carb friendly tortillas and made  wraps included with  spinach. 

 

Can I substitute “Egg Beaters” instead of eggs? Do organic eggs make the tuna taste better?

I keep my cans of tuna/albacore in the fridge.  Makes for a nice cold sandwich, just the way I like it.

 

Have you ever crunched down on a glass-like substance in your tuna?  I freaked but it turns out it's a completely natural substance called struvite that can form during the canning process.  Still turned me off tuna for quite some time.

I like my tuna fish mixed with

• mustard (German stone whole grain if I can find else brown or Dijun),
• chopped Georgia sweet onion,
• sea salt (unless being served on weck),
• a little basil
• sometimes a little relish

with

• sliced Roma tomatoes
• Swiss (Jarlsberg if available) cheese

On

• on toasted pumpernickel or weck.

 

 

Oh had tuna fish for dinner.  My wife made tuna stroganoff.

That made me think of tuna casserole, which I haven’t had in a while.  I know people make fun of it, but I think of it as comfort food, and it is great with beer to wash it down.

Definitely a great comfort food.

I like tuna stroganoff as leftovers for then you fry it in pan with some cooking wine or sherry and some onions.

Texture changes which makes it great.

Haven't you heard of tuna roe?

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

I have seen a lot of recipes that call for using Greek yogurt instead of mayo. Has anyone tried that? Seems like you might not lose much.

I wouldn't  advise using  Egg Beaters. The eggs need  to be grated  fine and I don't  think you can do that.

 

I don't  know  about  organic  ones either.  I use the house  brand jumbo  ones from  Kroger.   

 

Remember  I  need  to  save  my pennies  for my football travels  and my trips  to Jamaica.

ya do have me in the tartar, fish fry not the same without it. 

 

No to tartar. Malt vinegar, yes.

 

For the tuna, I like to add black pepper, mayo, diced onion, a small amount of celery, and a hard boiled egg.

Toasted wheat bread and a slice of American cheese and a thin slice of tomato.

Or as a melt with cheddar and a couple slices of bacon.

Have you ever tried mixing in apricot preserve in the wrap? It is really a nice touch!

Will need to try malt vinegar rather than mustard.  Thanks.

?‍♂️ ya know, not every dumbass topic oozing out of the Shartbox requires a poll or its own special thread. There’s a reason it’s an “option”..

 

Anyway, this is how I tuna fish

 

 

or, with a fork.

 

[145B4IDIE]

Okay... I’m an artist not a scientist so..

open a couple cans of albacore 

drain a little 

throw it in a bowl

add a healthy dollop of mayo

throw in some panko bread crumbs 

toss in some grated Romano/parm

s&p

lemonpepper is good

sometimes some mrs dash or southwestern dash

mix that up while you get that pre mixed country crock crushed garlic blend that you had previously prepared. Spread that on some crunchy French bread, toast that for a few.

now plaster that with some cream cheese (or Neufchâtel) and paste on that tuna salad

throw a couple thin slices of dill pickles on that and thank me later.

add salt and vinegar chips to your liking.

I don’t know whether to salivate or to grab my children and run into the forest screaming for our lives.  This sounds both delicious and repugnant.
