I love using deep red chunk tuna in olive oil. Plan to use this recipe for boat sandwiches using summer garden vegies. Found in the Seattle Times.

1 baguette, crusty (16 to 18 inches long)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, fruity
12 ounces tuna, olive-oil-packed
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
4 anchovy fillets, to taste (can be rinsed or marinated in lemon juice to make them milder)

PAN BAGNAT (PRESSED FRENCH TUNA SANDWICH)



Pan Bagnat (Pressed French Tuna Sandwich) image

I'm gonna show you how to make the world's most famous tuna sandwich, which is really the world's most famous tuna salad, the Niçoise, stuffed and pressed inside a whole loaf of bread. According to people who consider things, this is considered the ultimate picnic sandwich, since it has to be made ahead, and the longer it sits in its own juices, the better.

Time 8h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 clove garlic, minced
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 loaf day-old crusty French bread, split in half lengthwise
2 medium ripe tomatoes, sliced, divided
1 pinch freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch salt to taste
⅓ cup thinly sliced red onion
⅓ cup sliced green olives
⅓ cup sliced black olives
½ cup thinly sliced banana peppers
1 ½ cups olive oil-packed tuna, broken into large chunks
8 oil-packed anchovy fillets
1 tablespoon drained capers
2 medium hard-boiled eggs, sliced
¼ cup fresh basil leaves, or to taste
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Stir garlic into the olive oil and set aside.
  • Partially hollow out the bread by pulling out about 50% of the insides. Brush the bread very generously with the garlic olive oil, reserving about 1 tablespoon for later use.
  • Begin building the sandwich by placing a layer of sliced tomatoes on the bottom half, covering it completely. Season with salt and pepper. Top with sliced onion, olives, and banana peppers.
  • Crumble the tuna over the top, pressing down slightly so it stays in place. Be sure to go as close to the edges as possible. Top with anchovy filets, capers, sliced eggs, and basil leaves. Top with another layer of tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with vinegar and reserved garlic olive oil.
  • Place the top half of the loaf on and press firmly to compress the ingredients. Wrap in several layers of plastic wrap, then with aluminum foil, ending with seams at the top.
  • Place into a large pan and place a sheet pan over the top. Weigh down with heavy cans, pots, a cast iron pan, or a cutting board, to press the sandwich as evenly as possible.
  • Place in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours, or up to overnight, turning halfway through if possible. Unwrap, slice, and serve.

PAN BAGNA



Pan Bagna image

Categories     Sandwich     Olive     Tomato     No-Cook     Lunch     Goat Cheese     Basil     Tuna     Arugula     Radish     Summer     Chill     Gourmet     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

a 16-inch sourdough or whole wheat baguette
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 small garlic clove
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
3 ounces mild goat cheese, such as Montrachet
6 Kalamata olives (not available at farmers markets, but a great addition), pitted and sliced
1 cup arugula leaves, rinsed and spun dry
3 large radishes, sliced
1 1/2 cups sliced cooked fresh tuna steak (about 6 ounces)
3 small tomatoes, sliced thin
8 large fresh basil leaves, shredded

Steps:

  • Halve the bread horizontally, hollow out the top and the bottom, leaving 1/2-inch-thick shells, and brush the bottom shell with 1 tablespoon of the oil. In a blender combine the remaining 3 tablespoons oil with the garlic, the vinegar, and salt to taste and blend the dressing until it is emulsified. Spread the goat cheese in the bottom shell and top it with the olives, the arugula, the radishes, and salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the radishes with one third of the dressing, top them with the tuna and salt and pepper to taste, and drizzle half the remaining dressing over the tuna. Top the tuna with the tomatoes, the basil, and salt and pepper to taste, drizzle the mixture with the remaining dressing, and fit the top shell over it. Wrap the pan bagna tightly in plastic wrap and put it in a shallow baking pan. Top the pan bagna with a baking sheet and a large gratin dish filled with several 1-pound weights and chill it for 1 hour. The pan bagna may be made 6 hours in advance and kept covered and chilled. Serve the pan bagna cut into 2-inch slices.
