    When I was a young hi Fi buff I told my sister in law that I had just got a new tuner and she could see it in my bedroom.
    Her response was ” I didn’t know you had a fish tank”.

    I’m not a fan of cheese on toast, it’s so close to being a pizza it seems a waste.

    Optimum tuna is:

    Tuna Steak in Spring Water
    20% of total Mayo.
    Malt vinegar

    Few flakes of mature cheddar.
    Dash of Franks Hot Sauce.

    Wholemeal bap.

    Bluefin Tuna are give or take the weight of a Friesian Cow. It’s a crying shame (for them) they’re made of Tuna really.

    I was in Lidls earlier, saw tuna, thought “with pasta?”, thought nah, chicken’s better.
    My dog’s breath does smell a bit tuna-ish, even though she hasn’t eaten any for years. Weird that.

    Tuna and chicken?

    Screw tuna. Anchovies are where it’s at. The grey tinned tuna on its own is rank. Best way to have it is with some mayo, spring onions as a sandwich in some nice wholemeal bread wih walkers salt and vinegar crisps – or cheese and onion is an acceptable alternative, but got to be walkers.

    Tuna in a nicoise is just about acceptable as long as it’s turbo charged with anchovies.

    I’ve had the weirdest did poisoning from tuna – covered in blotches and no other symptoms.
    Luckily as I was asthmatic at the time too.

    See, to me, tuna is 2 different foods

    A fresh, thick tuna steak, seared around the edge, raw in the middle, served with a simple rocket salad with truffle oil new potatoes, is one of the finest meals I have eaten.

    Tinned tuna barely even registers as anything much above cat food

    We’re often in Tarifa at the end of May when the bluefin tuna is caught sustainably on its annual migration.
    There’s a lot of it around, not pricey, fresh and raw (soy sauce and wasabi optional). Very very good.

    I don’t officially recognise this tinned flaky “tuna” stuff.

    A fresh steak, still opaque and firm, rubbed with salt and papper and some olive oil, done over a hot griddle so the surface charrs and the middle stays raw. That’s tuna.

    I can assure you, they’re both Tuna. I like both, there’s no need to be pompous about it.

    A fresh, thick tuna steak, seared around the edge, raw in the middle, served with a simple rocket salad with truffle oil new potatoes, is one of the finest meals I have eaten.

    On that note, one of the problems with the pre-packed tuna steaks sold in supermarkets is that they are just not thick enough, e.g. only 15mm or so. Consequently it’s difficult/impossible to cook the outside while keeping most of the interior rare: I think the steaks need to be 25mm-30mm thick to get the best results.

    A couple of suggestions to jazz it up a bit:

    1. Some balsamic vinegar dizzled over the rocket or blended in the olive oil dressing, plus some shaved parmesan on top, gives the rocket salad a boost. You can shave the parmesan with a fancy mini-mandolin or a peeler.

    2. Fennel butter works well with tuna: pound a teaspoon or so of fennel seeds with a mortar and pestle. Melt some butter in a small pan and add the crushed fennel seeds. As soon as the tuna is done and on the plate, turn the heat up under the butter, and when it is foaming pour the butter over the tuna.
