>Boomers ruin nearly every perfectly reasonable dish with mayo by the cup and I just don't know why.
Is it impossible for you to discuss anything without "muh boomer"?

>>16925721
Forgot I had everything to make a tuna sandy. TY kind anon for reminding me!

Mayo is awesome

replace the mayo with greek yogurt

I have invented a new type of sandwich that nobody has ever made before. How do I name it after myself?

>>16925721
Does anyone else absolutely hate celery in tuna salad?

>>16925760
call it a Faggot Sandwich

>>16925768

I don't know what a celery is

its literally not a tuna salad sandwich without mayo. its just a tuna sandwich

what do you use in it instead of mayo? mayo is needed to combine everything together so that it doesnt fall apart. you use yogurt or something?

Tuna, celery, egg, mustard

>>16925725

>>16925768
Celery shouldn't be in any salad. But if it is put in, it should be finely diced

>>16925786
But it has all the other mix ins.

It's not like "salad" means "drenched in mayonnaise" if you go to a restaurant and order a fruit salad or a garden salad, it's not just a tub of mayonnaise. It's primarily plant matter.

>>16925811
Have you tried pickle relish instead of mustard and celery? The dill is a nice touch with fish, while still providing the same tang and crunchy element.

>>16925804
I had no problem at all with it falling apart. In fact it was less fally-aparty than with all that mayonnaise lubrication.

>>16925845
Is tuna a plant lol

>>16925768
that's one of the best ingredients

I personally prefer to add just a small dollop instead of skipping the mayo completely. It helps bring the flavors together better imo.

>>16925771
Manwich?

>>16925744
yup or sour cream is pretty good too
Personally I like a 50:50 mix of mayo and greek yogurt

>>16925721
it taste like absolute shit,mayo gives it the good flavor

the correct way to make tuna salad is with oil poached tuna (tuna confit) which isn't grossly overcooked like canned tuna and also is bathing in nice olive oil. it makes a wonderful tuna salad without having to lubricate with mayo.

That said though, I think mayo is really nice with tuna people just use way too much

anyone eating any amount of mayo is announcing to the world that mayonnaise is the only flavour they know other than sugar. it's pure americana

>>16925768
yes
Although I must have fucked up tastebuds or something because everyone always says it has a light or no flavor. But whenever I eat something that has celery all I taste is celery,

>>16925827
>The inexorable rise of identity condiments has led to hard times for the most American of foodstuffs. And that’s a shame.
Jesus fucking christ.

>>16926423
A giant nose just burst through my bedroom wall.

>>16926224
>it's pure americana

>Laughs in Ruthenian

>>16925721
I use honey and mustard.

>>16925827
Our grandpas are not the enemy because you are sensitive about silly things.

I never liked mayo and used to prefer it without. But my grandma once made me one using salad cream and white vinegar instead. It was amazing. I'll never go back to tuna mayo or plain tuna.

>>16926224
or that they're a latin chad. seethe more, cultureless swine.

>>16925721
I mean I think a little mayo is good because the emulsion helps bind the tuna with whatever spices and bits and bobs like green onion and celery you want to add

>>16925721
My favorite kind of tuna salad is a bit of mayo, celery, pepper, and a bit of tony's.
Favorite chicken salad is how my mom used to make with grapes.

>>16925721
I always just have tuna and cucumber.
Mayo is never required.

>>16925721
chickpea salad sandwiches are better don't @ me

>>16927445
My grandpa when butchering had the habit of asking a kid whether it wanted a "golden ring". Then he took its finger and quickly inserted it into the anus of a still-warm pig carcass.

>>16925865
No but everything else you add is. Like how a salad can have chicken in it

>>16927617
Isn't that just hummus?

>>16927627
>Isn't that just hummus?
No. Hummus has tahini and lemon juice.
You crush up chickpeas, add kelp granules, chopped up pickles, chopped up celery. You can add some vegenaise and pickle juice too. It's good.

>>16925827
>I'm white and I'm scared that the world no longer revolves around me and my shit upper middle suburban lizardpeople tastes.

God this article is pathetic

>>16927635
agreed. white liberal poser hipster foodies are the fucking worst

>>16925744
I do like ranch, kill me I'd you must

>>16925845
>he thinks “salad” means plants
No, zoomer. Salad is an extremely broad term.
That’s why there’s “fruit salad”, “garden salad”, “egg salad”, “potato salad”, “chicken salad”, etc.
Plants are not the defining characteristic.

>>16927641
>The word "salad" comes to English from the French salade of the same meaning, itself an abbreviated form of the earlier Vulgar Latin herba salata (salted greens)

>>16927641
That way madness lies.

>>16925721
OP likes having a dry mouth I see

>>16926224
>mayonnaise is Americana
What a weird way for an obvious American poster to betray their own cultural, historical and culinary fucking ignorance; by acting like only Americans use mayo. It's from Europe, and is wildly popular around the world, including Europe as well as in Slavic countries, East Asia and South America. The only people who don't eat "any amount of mayo" are whom then? Africans in mud huts?
This isn't reddit. You don't get updoots for retarded posts like this about how America bad because mayo, or whatever dumb fuck thought inspired you to post this pure stupidity. Now go back.

>>16927620
seems vaguely pedo like
did you have a "close" relationship with the man?

Why does every thread here seem to have a weird fixation with America?
Even more so than other boards, it seems like no matter the food or subject, the conversation goes to America and their food culture.

>>16927620
Never happened to me because my Father warned me about the pork butt fingering. But it was a tradition in the village for generations.

>>16928186
It was still plenty wet. Buy better tuna.

>>16927620
>>16928245
Did any other buttholes get fingered hmmm?

>>16925768
No. It provides nice texture.

>herba salata
>salted herbs
So you're using the excuse that frogniggers use the vulgar Latin for "salt" to describe salad and that that means salad is exclusively greens? Great attempt at a "gotcha", you retard.

>>16928375
No it wasn't, dry tooth

>>16925739
based mayonnaise enjoyer

>>16926223

It looks like a lot of work for a salad, but tasty enough to try

>>16925827
>Mayonnaise isn’t bland; it’s artfully blended. It’s an evocation of the era I grew up in, of the homogeneity of that old, dead American dream.

>>16928461
Sure thing, corncob.

>>16926224
mayo is on of the 5 french "mother" sauces

>>16925721
It's called a salad because you add a dressing baka. At least make your own miraculous whip

All that shit minus the useless egg is pretty much in the hot dog relish. This isn't egg salad keep the egg out.

>>16927606
sounds tasty anon. i use mayo, mustard, onion, black olive, and tony's.

I expected better.

>>16925721
mayonaise for tuna is 100 calories max

Mayonnaise in general is fucking disgusting and infinitely inferior to "whipped dressing" aka miracle whip, in every way

>tfw all this talk about mayonnaise brings up nightmares of a meal my mother regularly made

would take mayonnaise, mix in stuff like parmesan cheese, garlic, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, slather it on chicken breasts and bake it. the palest most unappetizing looking shit, plus did not taste good

she also would always dip her broccoli in mayonnaise to eat it. thought it was just because she made her broccoli terribly (microwaved in a dish of water with no seasoning) but even after i showed her my "fancy" way (roasted with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt pepper red pepper flakes) she still dipped in mayonnaise.

I don't even use mayo that often but this thread is retarded and most of the posters in it are fucking morons.

>>16925760
Give it a name, upload to popular social media platforms such as TikTok and YouTube to spread the word.

>>16930445
what's wrong with americans cooking mayonnaise?

>>16928279
/ck/ is the bonafide america general board. Haven't you noticed this by the amount of fast food threads?

>>16925721
My go to tuna salad (for tuna melts) recipe is usually just stuff I always keep around anyways.
Tuna, onion, green onion, a little mayo, chopped kalamata olive, seasoning, a little mustard. Maybe a little lemon as well depending.

Id like to put a little dill or celery in there occasionally but I never have those in the fridge.

Ideally id have some nice confit tuna like >>16926223
suggested but thats pricey, takes time to make, and I havent found a good canned version to substitute.

>>16928279
euros hate us cuz they ain't us

>>16925721
>fag discovers you don't need to drown everything in sauces and spices if your ingredients aren't fucking rotten
Better late than never I guess.

>>16925721
I'm not even gonna lie I think that mayo just makes it better. That, S&P, capers, a bit of mustard and some lemon juice

>>16927583
>salad cream
what

>>16932171
Salad cream is a creamy, pale yellow condiment based on an emulsion of about 25–50 percent oil in water, emulsified by egg yolk and acidulated by spirit vinegar.

>>16925721
>remove the binding agent to a loose meat sandwich
>less mess
real euro hours I see here

>>16932171
Mate once maid egg mayo sandwiches for our poker night, But he used salad cream... weirdest thing taste wise

>>16932171
Mayo with vinegar. It’s truly nauseating.

>>16925768
i personally like the crunch and freshness that it adds
