The center should be raw, like sushi, or the tuna will be tough and dry. Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes and serve.

THE BEST TUNA SANDWICH
Years ago, there was a deli in the town I worked and everyday faithfully, I would stop there for the Tuna sandwich (which was the best ever!) I became friends with the older lady that always worked the deli and she gave me the recipe. I will never forget what she told me.."The more colors in your Tuna, the better the flavor" sadly, the deli went out of business, but I never forgot her recipe. This tuna has lots of veggies in it, but if you dice them very small, it's so good! Remember, Tuna is a finicky meal.. too much mayo makes it watery and too little makes it dry and fishy.. be sure to use your best judgement and liking. (This recipe makes a lot) you can lessen it

Steps:
- Drain tuna very well and add to large bowl
- dice all of the above very small as indicated and add to tuna.
- I add about 3 -4 heaping kitchen sized tablespoons of Mayo into the tuna you may have to add a little more or a little less based on your preference
- add a few shakes of black pepper and salt (opt).
- Chill in airtight container in fridge. The longer you let it chill, the better the flavor. This can be served on pretty much any kind of bread. My personal favorite, onion rolls or seedless rye!
- Hope you enjoy & agree this is one of the best Tuna Sandwiches!

Tips:
- Use fresh and high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the final flavor of the dish. Fresh tuna, vegetables, and herbs will give you the best results.
- Don't overcook the tuna. Tuna is a delicate fish and it can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook it just until it's flaky and opaque in the center.
- Use a good quality mayonnaise. Mayonnaise is a key ingredient in tuna strata and it can make or break the dish. Look for a mayonnaise that is made with real eggs and oil, and avoid brands that contain a lot of fillers or additives.
- Layer the strata carefully. The order of the layers is important in tuna strata. Make sure to start with a layer of bread, then add the tuna mixture, vegetables, and cheese. Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the baking dish.
- Bake the strata until it is golden brown and bubbly. This will usually take about 30-40 minutes. Keep an eye on the strata while it's baking so that it doesn't overcook.
Conclusion:
Tuna strata is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a tuna strata that is sure to impress your family and friends.
