CRUNCHY TUNA SALAD WITH SHOESTRING POTATOES
My family has enjoyed this tuna salad for years. The salty crunch of the shoestring potatoes is a great complement to the creamy sweetness of the tuna and carrots. Add shoestring potatoes only at the very last moment as they become soggy after sitting. Make only as much as you will eat because these are not good as leftovers!

CREAMY AND CRUNCHY TUNA SALAD SUPREME
This tuna salad is made special with the addition of cream cheese and chopped raw carrots. Red peppers make it pretty and one or two other vegetables, fruits or nuts keep it changing and interesting. I developed this recipe after I tasted cream cheese in a salmon salad sandwich at a funeral lunch in Canada many years ago. Add baby spinach or lettuce leaves, and serve on your favorite bread or as a wrap in a tortilla.

THE BEST TUNA SALAD
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.

Steps:
- Boil all your eggs for 20 minutes. When done,pour out hot water and replace with cold til eggs can be peeled by hand. Chop these up med fine and add to large mixing bowl. Chop up about 10 Gherkin Pickles med fine.Save the juice for later. Peel and clip ends off your purple onion and slice them it into 1/3 inch rings (onion ring style)Again, lay down 2 whole rings and slice again in 1/2 this time. Now dice each 1/2 ring into med fine pieces. Be careful of the fingers, this is where it always gets me ! Use your own judgement on how much of the onion you want according to taste,some people like more some less... Wash Grape tomatoes and cut in 1/2 or 1/4 pieces. Add to bowl. Gentle mix up all contents of bowl and add mayo, again to taste but remember the juice? Yup, it's time to use it. If you use less than 3 tablespoons of mayo, add a shot or 2 of the juice in place of the mayo you omit. Just remember this is salad and it's got to have some sticking power if used on bread. If you like this mix wetter add all 3 mayo or more and a shot of juice... If used in a lettuce salad, don't worry about the falling apart cause it will be in a bowl...
- Now how to serve? Anyway you like. My favorite is stuffed into a big juicy garden tomato or wrapped in a lettuce roll or between a really good store bought or homemade whole wheat bread or favorite wrap...Always best when served cold ! Bon Appetite!

Tips:
- Use high-quality tuna: Opt for canned tuna packed in water or olive oil, and avoid varieties packed in vegetable oil or brine, as they can be lower in quality and have a less desirable flavor.
- Choose the right bread: For a classic tuna salad sandwich, use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the salad's moisture, such as a hearty white bread, wheat bread, or sourdough. For a lighter option, try using a croissant or a wrap.
- Add your favorite mix-ins: Tuna salad is a versatile dish that can be customized to your liking. Some popular mix-ins include chopped celery, red onion, hard-boiled eggs, pickles, and avocado. You can also add different herbs and spices, such as dill, parsley, chives, salt, and pepper, to taste.
- Use a light hand with the mayonnaise: Mayonnaise is a key ingredient in tuna salad, but it's important to use it sparingly. Too much mayonnaise can make the salad heavy and greasy. Aim for a ratio of about 1/4 cup of mayonnaise to every 1 pound of tuna.
- Chill the salad before serving: Tuna salad is best served cold, so be sure to chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the salad to firm up.
Conclusion:
Tuna salad is a classic dish that is easy to make and can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or a light and refreshing dinner, tuna salad is a great option. With its simple ingredients and endless variations, tuna salad is a dish that everyone can enjoy.
