Cooking tips

Try to chop the ingredients as finely as possible so that the salad has the most uniform consistency.

The larger the cucumber, the better. It should be smooth, attractive, and not bitter.

For this salad, tuna in its own juice is best, not in oil – it’s too fatty and doesn’t go well with the yogurt-mayonnaise dressing.
