Asian Inspired Tuna Salad Recipe (wing it style)

Asian Inspired Tuna Salad

Every so often I have to think up a different way to do everyday tuna salad. This is a salad recipe that you just have to forking wing. Everybody wings egg salad and all those salads but I did note the ingredients I used.

The base of this salad is made from heart healthy white miso. The white miso is low in calories and almost fat free. I did add a very small amount of thinned down with water light mayonnaise to get it to be more like dressing.

One of the main flavorings in the salad came from roasted mashed white turmeric. The white turmeric is similar in flavor to ginger but is far more edible and can be eaten raw. I used small or VERY small amounts of, mirin, rice vinegar, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce.

I also added prepared horseradish, fresh scallions, heirloom daikon radish (watermelon radish) and a small amount of fresh cilantro.

I would recommend to only use your favorite packaged tuna because I wouldn’t waste expensive ahi tuna doing this.

The salad really does pop with flavor and makes a pretty light, healthy but flavorful cracker topping.
