THE BEST TUNA SALAD



The Best Tuna Salad image

While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

PASTA SALAD WITH MARINATED TOMATOES AND TUNA



Pasta Salad With Marinated Tomatoes and Tuna image

Fresh, quick-marinated tomatoes make the best sauces for pasta salad because not much needs to be done beyond tossing the tomatoes with hot pasta, salt and olive oil. The juices from the tomatoes and the heat create a gloriously glossy combination. Feel free to make this pasta salad ahead of time, then toss in flaked tuna right before serving.

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pints cherry tomatoes (about 2 pounds), halved
1/2 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 large shallot, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 to 3 sprigs fresh oregano
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 pound casarecce or other short pasta
2 (6-ounce) jars tuna packed in olive oil, drained

Steps:

  • Toss cherry tomatoes, olive oil, shallot, garlic, oregano and vinegar in a large bowl. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season generously with salt.
  • Add pasta to the boiling water and cook until al dente, 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the shape and brand of pasta. With a spider or slotted spoon, strain pasta directly into tomato mixture and toss to combine. Season to taste with more salt and pepper.
  • Stir in flakes of tuna and serve with a drizzle of olive oil on top. The pasta can be served hot or at room temperature.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality tuna: Opt for solid white tuna packed in olive oil or water. Avoid tuna packed in vegetable oil, as it often contains unhealthy fats.
  • Choose a variety of vegetables: Incorporate a mix of colorful vegetables to add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your salad. Aim for a combination of crunchy (e.g., bell peppers, celery), soft (e.g., avocado, tomato), and leafy (e.g., lettuce, spinach) vegetables.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like dill, parsley, and chives add a burst of flavor and aroma to your tuna salad.
  • Choose a flavorful mayonnaise: Use a high-quality mayonnaise made with olive oil or avocado oil. Avoid mayonnaise made with soybean oil or vegetable oil, as they often contain unhealthy fats.
  • Add some crunch: Add some chopped nuts, seeds, or crispy croutons to your salad for added texture and flavor.
