Sandwich Essentials Loaded Tuna Egg Salad Food

TUNA EGG SALAD SANDWICH

Steps:

• After opening the tuna, drain it using a mesh strainer to drain the liquid while chopping onions or celery (optional) and then squeeze off the extra liquid using a spoon. Then toss the lemon in first and allow the lemon to penetrate into the drained tuna.
• Add the mayonnaise, chopped eggs, celery (if using), shallot, pickle relish (if using), the seasoning to the tuna fish.
• Mix all ingredients to combine, breaking up any large chunks of tuna fish as you go. Add more mayo if you'd like smoother, creamier tuna salad. Taste and add more of any of the ingredients to taste.
• Serve on bread or croissant with lettuce leaves or store in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
• If you're feeling indulgent, add some pastrami or bacon (this is optional).

TUNA EGG SALAD MELTS

Steps:

• Heat the broiler to high and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Add the tuna, chopped eggs, celery, dill pickles, pickled jalapeños and scallions to a mixing bowl. Mix to incorporate and to break up any large chunks of tuna. Set aside.
• Add the mayonnaise, mustard and smoked paprika to a small bowl. Whisk to combine. Add the mayonnaise mixture to the tuna mixture and use a rubber spatula to mix until evenly combined. Season to taste.
• Arrange the bread on the foil-lined baking sheet. Divide the tuna mixture evenly among the slices of bread. Top the tuna with a few slices of tomato. Sprinkle the tomato with salt and pepper. Top the tomatoes with the pepper jack cheese.
• Transfer the baking sheet to the broiler and broil until the cheese is bubbling and melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board, then slice in half and serve immediately.

SANDWICH ESSENTIALS: LOADED TUNA & EGG SALAD

Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. The best egg salad begins with the best hard-boiled eggs. I will not recommend any specific way to hard-boil eggs, simply because I am convinced that there is no single way that will work for everyone. With that said, the finished product should have firm whites with a bright-yellow yolk, and no green ring.
• 3. I make this recipe two ways: with eggs that are firmly cooked, and with eggs where the yolks are a bit runny. For this recipe, we will use firm "hard" boiled eggs.
• 4. Another important ingredient is the tuna, and for me the choice would be albacore. Albacore is a larger fish with a lighter colored flesh, a firmer texture, and a milder flavor than other brands. My absolute favorite brand is: Wild Planet. They are 100% sustainably pole and line caught, and they are not packed in oil or water... just nothing but pure tuna, and a bit of sea salt. http://www.wildplanetfoods.com/our-products/tuna/ I can pick up a can of Albacore tuna from another brand for $2.30 a can. Wild Planet costs around $3.80. If you cannot get Wild Planet tuna, no worries, just get tuna packed in water, not oil.
• 5. Lastly, let us talk about ratio. I tried using more eggs than tuna, and vise/versa. I finally settled on a 50/50 ratio. So, since I am using 5 ounces of tuna, I will use 5 ounces of eggs. Two large eggs come out to almost exactly 5 ounces.
• 6. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
• 7. In a large bowl, combine the bacon, walnuts, celery, relish, dill, Dijon, horseradish, Parmesan cheese and mayonnaise.
• 8. Mix together, then add some salt and pepper, to taste.
• 9. Add the chopped eggs and tuna, then gently fold into the sauce.
• 10. Cover and place in the fridge for 1 hour. This will give the ingredients a chance to know one another.
• 11. Toast the bread, and add a light layer of lettuce to two of the bread slices (toasting is optional).
• 12. Add half of the egg/tuna salad to each half.
• 13. Add a few thinly-sliced tomatoes.
• 14. Add some micro-greens.
• 15. Cover with the other bread slices.
• 16. PLATE/PRESENT
• 17. Serve with some chips, fries, or whatever you choose. Enjoy.
• 18. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

CREAMY TUNA & EGG SALAD

Steps:

• Put eggs into a pot with cold water and bring to a boil.
• Once the water is boiling, cover the pan and remove from the burner. Set your timer for ten minutes.
• Cut up onion and drain tuna while the eggs cook.
• Once the eggs have done their 10 minute soak, rinse with COLD water to stop the cooking process.
• Continue to rinse the eggs until you can hold them to remove the shell.
• Remove the shell, rinse away any shell particles and cut into chunks (or small pieces if you like a finer texture).
• Mix the egg, tuna, onion in a bowl with a fork.
• Add mayo, Miracle Whip, ground mustard, paprika, salt and pepper and mix until blended.
• Enjoy on bread or toast; or top a plate of mixed greens with tomatoes. You could also stuff tomatoes with the salad. A perfect summer meal when you don't want to turn on the oven!
