Yield Makes 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 6-ounce packages albacore tuna packed in water, drained
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/4 cup diced seeded English hothouse cucumber
1/4 cup minced fresh dill
1/4 cup drained capers
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons minced fresh tarragon
12 1/3-inch-thick slices olive bread
1 cup arugula

Steps:

  • Mix tuna, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, and next 6 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Divide tuna salad among 6 bread slices; top with arugula leaves. Spread remaining mayonnaise on remaining 6 bread slices; place atop arugula. Cut sandwiches in half; wrap each tightly in plastic wrap. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Refrigerate.)

Tips:

  • Choose the right tuna: Opt for high-quality tuna packed in olive oil or water. Avoid tuna packed in vegetable oil, as it tends to have a lower quality and less flavor.
  • Use fresh and flavorful vegetables: Choose ripe and crisp vegetables for the best flavor. Use a variety of colors and textures for a visually appealing salad.
  • Make your own dressing: Homemade dressing is easy to make and allows you to control the ingredients and flavors. Experiment with different herbs, spices, and vinegars to create a unique dressing.
  • Don't overmix the salad: Overmixing can break down the tuna and make the salad mushy. Gently toss the salad until the ingredients are evenly combined.
  • Serve immediately: Tuna salad is best enjoyed fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When ready to serve, let the salad come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Tuna salad on olive bread with arugula is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or as a snack. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, it's a great option for busy weeknights or casual gatherings.
