Garden Tuna Sandwich Recipes

TUNA SANDWICH

Steps:

• Drain water from the canned tuna and add to a bowl.
• Add 3-4 Tbsp Mayonnaise. You can add more or less according to preference. (See notes)
• Stir the tuna well, so that it becomes easily spreadable.
• Add the mustard and minced shallots.
• Use a fork to mix and stir the tuna to get it more smooth and spreadable. I like it only slightly chunky. If you want it extremely smooth, mix further.
• Once the texture is to your liking, add in the freshly chopped dill, salt, pepper, and paprika. Stir till thoroughly incorporated.
• Chill the tuna spread for at least 30 minutes in the fridge for best results. The filling tastes better chilled.
• To assemble: Shred the lettuce (rinsed and dried using a salad spinner or on kitchen paper).
• For each sandwich, apply a thin layer of Mayo on both slices of Un-toasted bread. Spread a generous layer of chilled tuna filling on one slice and top with plenty of shredded lettuce. Place the second slice over the lettuce and use a baking scraper to press it down, to prevent finger impressions.
• Cut the sandwich and serve while it is still chilled.
• if you want to store them wrap in sandwich paper or saran wrap and refrigerate till ready to use.

ULTIMATE TUNA MELTS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, flake the tuna finely with a fork. Add the celery, scallions, and dill, and continue mixing and fluffing with the fork until combined. Add the lemon juice, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Combine the mayonnaise and anchovy paste, if using, and mix into the tuna.
• Preheat the broiler. Toast the bread in a toaster and place the slices in a single layer on a sheet pan. Spread a quarter of the tuna mixture thickly and evenly on each piece of bread, covering the entire slice. Sprinkle the cheese evenly on the 4 sandwiches, covering the tuna completely. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes, just until the cheese melts and starts to brown. (Watch it carefully!) Sprinkle with the microgreens and serve hot.
