Tarragon Tuna Salad Recipes

Steps:

• For the pasta: In a large pot, bring 3 quarts of water and 1 tablespoon salt to a full boil. Add pastas and cook for about 10 minutes until al dente. Immediately strain pasta and cool by running cold water over pasta in strainer. Drain pasta completely and place in a bowl. Coat pasta with canola oil to prevent sticking.
• For the dressing: Place tuna in a large bowl and break down into small pieces. Add the remaining dressing ingredients and thoroughly whisk to combine.
• Combine the dressing and cooked pasta and mix thoroughly. ALLOW SALAD TO MARINATE FOR 8 HOURS! After 8 hours, top with more pickle juice and salt and pepper to taste.
• Bon Apetite!

Steps:

• Thoroughly whisk together dressing ingredients in a large bowl. Add tuna to bowl and toss to coat with dressing. Fold in the remaining ingredients. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour. Serve tuna salad on mustard rolls with lettuce.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook, stir water, yeast, salt, oil, mustard, and 2 cups of flour together; beat until mixed. Add remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating until the dough holds together. Remove from mixer and knead on a floured surface until dough springs back when poked with your finger. Place in an oiled bowl and let rise until doubled in size. Punch down and let rise again. Knead lightly and shape into rolls. Let rise 1 more time and then brush with glaze.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Let rolls cool for 5 minutes before slicing in half and serving with a hearty portion of tuna salad topped with lettuce.

Steps:

• Drain and flake tuna; add celery and relish.
• Combine the remaining ingredients; mix well.
• Add to tuna; mix thoroughly. Serve on crisp lettuce.

Steps:

• Whisk together the first six (dressing) ingredients.
• Fold in the tuna and peas.
• Toss in the pasta.
• Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Chill at least two hours before serving.
• The pasta will absorb the dressing, the flavors will blend and the dried tarragon flavor will really blossom.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the pasta, tuna, red pepper and onions. In a small bowl, whisk remaining ingredients. Pour over salad and toss gently. Chill for 1 hour.

Steps:

• Boil eggs until cooked all the way through, 5 minutes or so.
• Drain water from tuna. Add to mixing bowl. Chop all ingredients to smaller than bite size. Mix with yogurt, sour cream (or mayonnaise), lemon juice and dill. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• *I generally make this recipe by sight, so you may want to add the ingredients slowly until you feel it looks even.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, gently break up, but do not mash the drained tuna. Add the grapes, walnuts, diced celery, onion and chopped egg. Stir to mix. Add dressing and combine until evenly moistened. Keep chilled in a covered container until ready to serve. Makes 4 servings. (Yield: 3 cups of Tuna Salad.) To make Lemon Tarragon Dressing: Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, then gently combine with tuna mixture.
