Canned tuna oil is rich in vitamin D and omega-3: here’s how to reuse it
1. Dress pasta or rice salad

One way to reuse canned tuna oil is to use it in recipes where tuna is the protagonist. For example, you can use it as a fat for the soffritto that will then make up your tuna pasta, but also to flavor rice, pasta, spelt or barley salad.

2. Marinate the fish

Marinating fish with canned oil is not an action for unbelievers. If we are talking about canned products, such as mackerel, sardines or tuna itself, we can also serve them raw, letting them rest first in a mix of fresh olive oil, oil from the can, aromatic herbs, salt and pepper.

3. Create tasty bruschetta

If you have planned a dish with canned tuna, why not create creative bruschetta, or delicious croutons, with tuna oil? You can stuff them with anchovies and with the tuna itself, but also with vegetables lightly sautéed in a pan and then seasoned with oil from the can.

4. Flavor the tuna focaccia

Do you want to cook a focaccia but don’t know how to season it? Well, canned tuna is a valid option. Even better if you use the tuna for a dish and the oil to dress your focaccia: just add coarse salt, rosemary or thyme, and a few grains of ground pepper, to have a perfect appetizer.

5. Prepare a tasty sauce

Mixing canned tuna, or even just oil, with mayonnaise is the first idea that comes to mind so as not to waste the contents of the can. But this magic can also be done with aioli sauce, for example, or with a very simple yogurt sauce.
