This is delicious! I made it exactly as written and it was great but me being me i had to kick it up a few notches.. i added a tiny bit of red onion in addition to the green, i diced up and added some pickled jalapenos, and added some wasabi…after this i felt like it was missing something so i added a small amout of dill relish (a classic in my go to tuna salad mix).. It is amazing! The relish gave it that little kiss of sweetness it was missing. Its amazing! Thank you so much for the inspo!

In reply to Y. You can use small curd cottage cheese, instead. You will be amazed at how good it is in place of Mayo.

This recipe is quick to make & incredibly delicious! I love the umami punch it carries. Served it on roasted seaweed & topped with toasted sesame seeds. Definitely a winner!

This turned out amazing!!! i was a little suspicious about the miso at first as it could be quite salty by itself, but WOW, that was the best part! it adds so much umami to the usual basic “tuna salad sandwich”.

I just want to say thank you x 10000 for all the recipes you’ve shared on this blog. I go through your recipe archive everyday to figure out what to make for the next meal because all the recipes are right up our alley – eg. we especially love all your Japanese, Vietnamese, and Chinese recipes!! Before i found your blog, i could barely cook… and a year later (and with covid forcing us to cook at home everyday), my husband can’t stop bragging to his friends how well i can cook now… and i feel like i owe this credit to you guys!!

Will try this basic “sea chicken”* mix in onigirazu, asnpart of a bento box lunch.

* Japanese call tuna salad of this type, “sea chicken.” It is a huge fave in Japan especially among the young and konbini crowd (konbini are convenience stores).
As near as I can determine, the name stems from the American marketing of “Chicken of the Sea,” brand canned tuna!

This sound so good. I have never used miso paste for any meals that aren’t soups. I’ll have to try it soon!

I don’t like Mayo either so I usually add half mayo and half mustard for tuna salad and it went really well with the miso. I didn’t have celery so I added some radish for crunch and served it with avocados. SO GOOD! Thanks for the awesome recipe. I’m a huge fan of your blog :)

I made this today and used red pepper instead of celery. Delicious! Didn’t know miso would taste great with kewpie mayo! Will definitely make this again in the future :)
