steve's tuna salad
Food memories. Those are the strongest, no? There are so many solid food memories I have as a child. Steve’s tuna was one of the strongest.
Named steve’s tuna after the contractor that worked with my architect father, after his favorite dish, it was a white sauce based cooked tuna dish served over rice.
I’ve played with the flavors and turned it into a tuna salad of sorts. One that works perfectly over a bed of lettuce, in a sandwich, and even heated in a tuna melt.
This is the steve’s tuna of the 21st century.
Ingredients:
15 oz canned tuna (I prefer wild planet)
1 1/2 cups english peas, shelled and blanched
1 cup minced celery
1/4 tsp celery salt
1 1/2 Tbsp minced white onion
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
1/2 cup creme frache
1/2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp fresh dill
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and use a fork to combine.
