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.

QUICK TUNA AND RAISINS SALAD



Quick Tuna and Raisins Salad image

A deli in Soho sold this and I got hooked. Adding curry powder in a small amount just adds a nutty, not a curried/Indian flavor. Curry is equally good added to shredded chicken and mayonnaise on bread.

Tips:

  • For the best-tasting results, use high-quality canned tuna. Look for tuna that is packed in water or olive oil, and avoid tuna that is packed in vegetable oil.
  • If you don't have any raisins on hand, you can substitute another dried fruit, such as cranberries or cherries.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to your salad, such as chopped celery, carrots, or cucumbers.
  • For a more flavorful salad, use a homemade dressing. A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard is a great option.
  • Serve your salad immediately, or chill it for later. Tuna salad is a great make-ahead meal, and it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Tuna and raisin salad is a classic dish that is both delicious and easy to make. It's a great option for a quick lunch or dinner, and it's also a healthy and affordable meal. So next time you're looking for a simple and tasty recipe, give tuna and raisin salad a try.
