Equipment

Ingredients

For serving:

  • Toasted bread, baby greens, and tomato slices

Instructions

Make the eggs:

  • Bring a pot of water to a low boil over medium-high heat. Carefully add the eggs. Cook for 14 minutes. Transfer the eggs to an ice bath. Use a small metal spoon to crack the shell all over before peeling it off. Finely dice the eggs and set aside.

Prepare the salad:

  • Combine the diced eggs with the celery, red onion, parsley, and golden raisins in a large bowl. Add the drained tuna and flake it into pieces with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.

Make the dressing:

  • Combine the mayonnaise, vinegar, Dijon, and honey in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasonings to your preference.

Finish the tuna salad:

  • Pour the dressing over the salad and stir gently to combine, breaking up the bigger pieces of tuna until the salad reaches your desired consistency. Add salt, pepper, and a pinch of sumac to taste.
  • Transfer the tuna salad to the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

To serve:

  • Serve the tuna salad on thick slices of toasted bread with tomatoes and baby greens. If you like, finish each toast with more black pepper and sumac. Enjoy!
