ORIGINAL TUNA MELTS



Original Tuna Melts image

Long before Tuna Melts, in their many variations, became standard on every menu, my mother discovered this 1950's recipe. We grew up having these kid-friendly rolls on Friday nights when, as Catholics, we were forbidden meat. Served in corn-on-the-cob dishes with a side of french fries and a salad, Mom was out of the kitchen in under 45 minutes and we kids were in hog heaven!

BEST TUNA MELTS EVER



Best Tuna Melts Ever image

This tuna melt recipe is made from my tuna salad recipe. It is lower in fat and absolutely delicious. The key is to toast the bread first! (And the spices help). It is my own creation, and I do not usually use a recipe - I am sharing this with you now, in hopes that you'll love it as much as my friends & I do! YUM! NOTE: You can use premium tuna or not - I usually use the cheaper stuff for the tuna melts & save the Albacore for the pasta salads.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (6 ounce) can canned tuna
2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 dill pickle, diced
1/4 small onion, finely diced
salt & pepper
1/4 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
1 small tomatoes, finely sliced
1/4 cup grated cheese, of your choice
2 slices bread

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • In a small bowl, add the mayo, mustard, salt, pepper & spice. Mix with a fork.
  • Finely dice the onion & dill pickle, and add to the bowl.
  • Add the tuna, well drained, to the mixture.
  • With a fork, mix well, ensuring the tuna is saturated with mayo & mustard, and the pickles & onion are evenly distributed. Adjust spice as necessary.
  • Slice the tomato into very thin slices, removing seeds. Place slices on a paper towel to absorb moisture (you don't want soggy bread).
  • Toast bread, slightly lighter than you prefer.
  • Divide tuna salad mixture in half, and scoop on top of the toast. Spread the mixture evenly.
  • Place tomato slices on top of tuna mixture.
  • Sprinkle grated cheese on to toast.
  • Place toast onto a cookie sheet.
  • Bake for 5 - 10 minutes, until cheese is bubbly.
  • Enjoy!

How to Make a Tuna Melt image

This is dedicated to all those chefs who tell you to never, ever mix fish and cheese together; and yet there they are, at the diner at 2:00 in the morning. And you know what they eat? Tuna melts. And the reason they do is because it is delicious.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Seafood     Fish     Tuna

Time 25m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (6.5 ounce) jar oil-packed tuna, drained
1 tablespoon minced green onion
2 tablespoons finely diced celery
2 teaspoons capers, drained
1 teaspoon Asian chile paste (such as sambal oelek)
2 tablespoons mayonnaise, or more to taste
⅓ cup fresh mozzarella cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons softened butter, divided
2 thick slices French bread
¼ cup shredded sharp white Cheddar cheese, divided
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place tuna into a mixing bowl and lightly break apart with a fork. Add green onion, celery, capers, chile paste, and mayonnaise. Pinch small pieces from mozzarella cheese into the tuna salad and stir to mix. Season with salt and black pepper; refrigerate tuna salad until needed.
  • Heat oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Spread butter generously on both sides of French bread slices.

  • Place sandwiches under broiler and cook until cheese is melted and bubbling, 5 to 6 minutes.
