This taste good but I didn’t get a picture that I am happy with……Oh well. This tuna salad with made with an Italian Condiment called Neonata. It’s a Hot Fish Condiment. I thought it would work well with packaged tuna and it does. If you have Neonata the recipe is very easy and will be delicious. I learned of Neonata from watching a cooking competition show on Food Network. Neonata was the ingredient the competitors all had to use. The restauranteur/Judge of the competition said Neonata is one of his personal favorite ingredients and he uses lots of it in his restaurant so I thought I’d give it a try. I recently made baked crispy potato balls with Neonata that were good and tasty but this Tuna Salad with Neonata is Special and was very good!
Ingredient for about 2 servings
6.4 oz drained light tuna
3 Tablespoons Neonata
10 cured olives – pits removed – rough chopped
1 lemon – the fresh juice and zest
2 Tablespoons sweet onion – chopped well
1/4 cup leftover sweet grilled corn
1 Tablespoon celery leaves – chopped well
1 Tablespoon balsamic vinegar
fresh crushed sea salt to taste (you won’t need much at all)
Fresh crushed black pepper to taste (you won’t need much)
Directions
In a small mixing bowl combine everything and add fresh ground sea salt and black pepper to taste. Serve with bread, crackers, cucumber chips, salad or wrap.
Is this picture any better?
The Tuna Salad is really delicious and interesting. The Neonata just goes well with tuna. I used those extra special cured olives, lemon, balsamic and the pops of sweet corn just make it all work. I just had no luck getting a photo I was happy with. I should of just shoved it between bread.
Enjoy!
