You all loved the NY deli chicken salad, so I thought the tuna salad would be a great one to share as well. Make sure to refrigerate overnight before eating! That is the single most important thing with this or any deli salad. If you like these NY deli recipes and want more, let us know below!

I always thought of them as Kaiser rolls. Same thing without the poppy seed was a “bulky roll.” If they are fresh and not stored in plastic bags they have a crisp crust and are often called hard rolls, depending on the part of the country you are from. Great for hot pastrami sandwiches & the like!

James is a tough critic. Every cooking channel should have their kids taste their food. That's the real test of quality.

I was born in Brooklyn and raised on Long Island, so Deli food is one of the things I miss along with local pizzeria slices. I still make my own tuna salad on rye bread, with Hellman's Mayo and Walmart New York Rye Bread, which is not bad at all. Since I have spent almost 20 years of my life in Asia since I left New York in 1975, I have come to appreciate Wasabi. I now combine Hellman's with Wasabi Mayo for my tuna salad. If you want to add something exotic to your Deli choices, give the Wasabi Mayo a try.

Your taste tester adds value to the video. I like the honesty of his views.

Also agree with him 100%, too. Regular tuna sandwiches are better than tuna melts. There's the rare occasion I want a tuna melt, but for an everyday sandwich, just mayo, lettuce and tomato and you're golden. Also personally, I like putting chopped up pickles in my tuna mix. Adds so much with the flavor and texture.

I grew up eating my favorite tuna salad from a deli in Flushing on the corner of Kissena Blvd. and Cherry Avenue. The wonderful German owner told me his secret was using fresh lemon juice and when I make it my family loves it.

In the 70's I loved tuna melts, now I love cold tuna sandwiches with lots of celery. My secret is to get tuna packed in oil not water and drain it good then use Hellmans mayo in a small amount just to bind it. I just made some last week and on a toasted brioche bun with lettuce and tomato I was in food Nirvana heaven!

Working with an International Master Chef, we always placed our #10 cans in a strainer in the sink and then take the tuna in a handful and squeeze as much of the juice as you can from the tuna then flake it into the bowl that we would then add the dressing mix(mayo etc). That way the tuna is way dry and will absorb the mayo etc.

I worked in a granite shop for 5 years, helped start the shop up in the early days. Thin slices of granite are fragile, like at the front of a sink. We were very careful to support the front of the sink during installation, but that is the most vulnerable spot in the whole kitchen. Don't put weight on it! Cabinets settle after installation, so the support might have shifted. Be careful at the sink! I don't know how to make that any clearer. There's no flexing with granite. Next to diamond, it is the hardest natural stone (and the most beautiful, when polished).

@@hanknmosul thanks for the advice friend

Great recipe we tried it and loved it. Thank you for your video.

Just made this. It was very good! thank you

Secret tip - use a food processor. Chop the veggies first, add mayo then the tuna last - don't over blend. You'll thank me after you try it.

😂😂😂 James as he shoveled the sandwich I like a lot of your tips in this video thank you

My Jewish friend told me that Delis also add torn up white bread (crust removed) to the tuna. Gives it a nice sweet taste without sugar. I've tried it, and it's good.

That tuna looks so delicious. Thanks for sharing the recipe, James.
