INGREDIENTS

Beans and Tuna Salad

DIRECTIONS

  • Put the beans and onion into a serving bowl, sprinkle with salt to taste, and toss.
  • Drain the tuna and add it to the bowl, breaking it into large flakes with a fork.
  • Pour on enough oil to coat well, add a dash of vinegar and black pepper, toss thoroughly, turning over the ingredients several times, taste and correct for seasoning, and serve at once.
  • For the onion: Peel the onion, slice it into very thin rings, put it in a bowl, and cover amply with cold water. Squeeze the rings in your hand for 2 or 3 seconds, closing your hand tightly and letting go for seven to eight times. The acid you squeeze out of the onion will make the water slightly milky. Retrieve the onion rings with a colander scoop or strainer, pour the water out of the bowl, put fresh water in. Put the onion back into the bowl and repeat the above procedure 2 or 3 more times. After squeezing the onion for the last time, change the water again and put the onion in to soak. Drain and replace with a fresh change of water every 10 minutes, until you are ready to make the salad. Before putting the onion into the salad bowl, gather it tightly in a towel and squeeze out all the moisture you can.
