Is it possible to cook with canned tuna?

Canned haters should check this place out imho:

europeans have some high quality canned goods

the 'no reservations' spain episode features many beautiful looking & expensive canned fishes -- seemed like a pretty common if not high class tapas thing there

i would never order canned tuna at a restaurant tho bcuz it's one thing that i keep at home to make whenever i run out of food am feeling super lazy

yeah spanish are mad for fancy canned food. i have marvelled in supermercados.

in britain you can get some fancier canned food in some places. in a normal shop a tin of sardines is 40p or whatever, you can get ones in waitrose that are over £2 and they are so much better quality.

supposed to be a slash in there

when i was in school i'd make tuna quesadillas quite frequently, pretty much a tuna melt w/ a tortilla for bread -- did this when i had no bread left

The key is to get the good quality stuff that is in big chunks, not a slusge of finely flaked tuna in crappy brine (which I suspect is what a lot of cheap US tuna might be like?).

Here you can also buy tuna in cans like you would sardines - big slices, like you might get off a tuna steak almost. I've had tuna steak too and tbh I cant much tell the diff, unless the tuna is raw, and blech (not a fan of tuna sashimi).

in general american canned tuna is way nicer than australian canned tuna.

Fair nuff! I only buy the imported italian stuff anyway :)

(nothing more depressing than opening a can of Savings tuna and finding a puddle of brine and only half a can of actual meat)
