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.

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

3 (6 ounce) cans solid white tuna packed in water
1 tablespoon white pepper
4 celery ribs (not whole bunches)
3 tablespoons plain breadcrumbs
4 -5 tablespoons mayonnaise

Steps:

Open the cans of tuna and drain all the water from the tuna. (Use a can strainer for best results; try to get tuna as dry as possible). Leave at least one empty can handy.
Break up tuna chunks either with your hands or use a fork. Try to leave least ammount of chunks as possible.
In a piramid style grater, use the largest holes and grate the celery ribs. Discard the long string looking pieces.
Fill up the empty tuna can with grated celery. The can should be filled to the top, if not, grate one more rib.
Drain the celery using same method as for tuna.
Mix tuna, celery, breadcrumbs and white pepper in a large bowl. Once everything is mixed, add mayo and mix everything again. If the salad looks a bit dry, add another tablespoon of mayo.
You should now have a tiny bit spicy and very delicious tuna salad.
