Juniors Tuna Fish Salad Recipes

TUNA FISH SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the tuna, celery, onion, mayonnaise, lemon juice, parsley, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate until chilled. Sprinkle with paprika if desired.

TUNA FISH SALAD

Steps:

• Open the two 12-oz. cans of tuna and strain in a wire colander in the sink.
• Take a pot and bring the eggs to a rolling boil. Once they are finished set the pot in the sink and let cool. You can do this by draining the hot water and covering the eggs with cold water. Once they are cool enough to hold in your palm, peel off shells and mash with a fork into tiny bits. Place into the same pot that you boiled the eggs inches.
• Add the tuna fish to the eggs and mix together.
• Chop and mince the celery, green onion, yellow onion, and olives. You should not have any large chunks. Individually mix each into the tuna and eggs. Add the sweet relish. If you add and mix each ingredient separtely, each will be better incorporated into the mixture.
• Mix in the mustard until it is incorporated. Add the mayonnaise and if your salad looks sort of dry, add more as needed. You should have a wet consistency.
• Sprinkle in the salt and pepper.
• To get the best taste of the tuna salad, refrigerate for about 20 to 30 minutes before serving. You can serve on bread or over fresh lettuce with a few tomato slices.

BEST EVER TUNA SALAD

Steps:

• Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil and immediately remove from heat. Cover and let eggs stand in hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from hot water, cool, peel and chop finely.
• In a mixing bowl, combine tuna, crabmeat, mayonnaise, sour cream and mustard. Stir in chopped egg, dill weed, lemon pepper, dill and sweet relish and chopped onion. Mix thoroughly.

JUNIOR'S TUNA FISH SALAD

Steps:

• Place the tuna in a colander and drain well. Transfer the tuna to a medium-sized bowl and break it up with your fingers into flakes (please, use your fingers, not a knife, to finely shred the tuna. This gently flakes the tuna, instead of crushing it.) Stir in the celery.
• Mix all the ingredients for the dressing in a small bowl. Spoon the dressing on top of the tuna and celery mixture. Gently stir in the dressing until all of the salad ingredients are well coated. Use in sandwiches or serve as a salad on crisp lettuce leaves.
• Tightly cover and refrigerate any leftovers.

MY MOTHER'S TUNA SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the tuna, place it in a bowl and break it up with a fork. Add 1/4 cup of mayonnaise and blend well. Mix in the remaining ingredients, and add the rest of the mayonnaise. Check for celery salt, Season-All, salt and pepper. This is better if it sits at least one hour before serving.

TUNA-SALAD SANDWICH, JULIA CHILD STYLE

Steps:

• Prepare the tuna salad: Using a fork, mash the tuna with 3 tablespoons mayonnaise. Add the celery, as much onion and chopped cornichons as you'd like, and the capers or olives, and toss to combine. Add a squirt of lemon juice, some salt (go easy at first) and pepper. Taste and see if you'd like more mayo, onion or cornichons. Add more lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chives or parsley, if you're using either. (Makes 1 1/2 cups.) The tuna salad is good to go as soon as it's made, but it's even better after a couple of hours in the fridge.
• When you're ready to serve, spread the muffins or bread with a little mayonnaise. If you're using English muffins, do what Julia did: Make open-face sandwiches. Put a leaf of lettuce on each muffin half, top with tuna salad and finish with tomato and onion. If you're using sliced bread, prepare traditional sandwiches: Top each of 2 slices of bread with 1 piece lettuce, tomato and onion, then spread over the tuna and finish with remaining onion, tomato, lettuce and bread.
