🤫 The Secret Ingredient…
🥒 Dill Pickle Juice!
Just a splash adds brightness, balances the creaminess, and gives the tuna that “what is that amazing flavor?” factor. It doesn’t taste pickley — it just makes everything better.
🕰️ A Little History of the Tuna Sandwich
The tuna sandwich became popular in the early 1900s as a quick, affordable protein-packed meal. Over time, home cooks began customizing it with add-ins like celery, onions, and spices. This version keeps the classic comfort but adds a modern twist — simple ingredients, big flavor.
🛒 Ingredients
2 cans tuna (in water), drained well
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1–2 teaspoons dill pickle juice (the secret!)
1 tablespoon finely chopped pickles or relish
1 tablespoon finely chopped red onion or celery
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Optional: fresh dill or parsley
Bread of choice (toasted or soft)
Optional add-ons: lettuce, tomato, cheese
👩🍳 Instructions
Drain tuna very well and place in a bowl.
Flake tuna with a fork until light and fluffy.
Add mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and pickle juice.
Stir in chopped pickles and onion or celery.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Mix until creamy but not mushy.
Spread onto bread, add toppings if desired, and serve!
🔥 Method & Tips
Drain tuna thoroughly — this keeps it creamy, not watery.
Start with 1 teaspoon pickle juice and add more if needed.
Toasted bread adds crunch; soft bread keeps it classic.
Chill for 10 minutes for even better flavor.
