    When I run out of sweet relish I add chopped apple to mine and it is delicious! Try it in your chicken salad sometime! I heard the chicken salad at Wendy's I believe it is adds green grapes to their chicken salad, never had that but it sounds interesting!!!

    We've been getting g fresh tuna that has been just excellent - but the season is just now over. I'm lined up to go next year for halibut, salmon, ling cod and tuna. It's going to be a summer of eating fish. Wish I could get Bones to visit.

    Default Tuna Mousse

    Ok, I'll chime in. This stuff is seriously addicting:

    1 tablespoon light soy sauce
    1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
    1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
    10 ounces (280 g) olive oil-packed tuna, drained
    1/8 teaspoon pimente d'Espelette, or a nice pinch of chili powder
    5 tablespoons butter, salted or unsalted, cut into cubes
    2 tablespoons heavy cream or crème fraîche

    Mix together the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar and lemon juice.

    In a food processor or mortal and pestle (which I used) process or pound the tuna until it's broken down but not smooth. Mix in the liquid seasonings and process or pound until the mixture is smooth. Add the chili powder.

    Add the butter bit by bit, adding each cube only after the previous one has been incorporated. If using a food processor be careful not to overdo it as the heat from the machine can cause the butter to melt.

    Add the cream or crème fraîche just until it's incorporated.

    I love tuna salad made w/ mayo and a squeeze of lemon- and then a bag of frozen/thawwed peas & carrots added. A nice, quick, easy, yummy chilled salad!

    I love that too! If I will be free of my time, I would try to make a variety of tuna topped salads.

    Bavarian Lunch

    My favorite arrangement with tuna is a simple one I first fell in love with when it was prepared by a Bavarian friend when I came to visit Nuremberg...

    Chill the can of white albacore overnight (still counts as tuna, right?).
    Boil some new or fingerling potatoes cut up, but with jackets left on.
    While they're cooking, open and the tuna, drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again.
    Prepare some home made mayonnaise per your favorite recipe (in a pinch Hellman's seems to work best)
    Place a portion of potatoes, a portion of the tuna, and a dollop of mayo on the plate.
    Eat it by taking a fork-full of potato, with some tuna, and dab a knife tip full of mayo on it. There's something bout the combination of warm potato, with cold tuna, and fresh mayo that's just... Sehr lecker!!
    Tastes great with some cool seltzer, or a nice cold Weizen Bier.

    Kyn, mind if I make an alternative of your ingredients? Because, I'm not familiar with those brands.
