Notes
-
- Finely chop the vegetables - Small pieces of celery and red onion help distribute the flavor and crunch evenly throughout the tuna salad.
- Drain the tuna well - If using tuna packed in water, drain off all the liquid. For tuna packed in oil, use a fork to remove the tuna without adding excess oil to the salad.
- Use dried dill if needed - No fresh dill? Use 1–2 teaspoons of dried dill instead.
