Tomato and Ventresca Tuna Salad Recipe by Chef Joshua Whigham

Tinned fish is “in” for a reason – it’s crazy good. Locate some ripe tomatoes, white onion and open a can or jar of tuna conserva and build the best Spanish salad you’ll ever have. Grab a piece of bread to soak up all the juices while sipping on a crisp Verdejo. Olive oil-packed tuna belly and peak season tomatoes are the keys to this no-fuss, no-cook salad.
