Frequently Asked Questions About Superfresh Classic Tuna
Is Superfresh Classic Tuna ready to eat straight from the can?
Yes, Superfresh Classic Tuna is ready to eat and does not need cooking after opening. Add it directly to a sandwich, salad or pasta; use a clean utensil and refrigerate any leftovers promptly.
Do you need to rinse Superfresh Classic Tuna?
No, Superfresh Classic Tuna does not need rinsing. Draining it is enough if you want a drier filling; rinsing can wash away flavor and make the tuna watery. Follow your recipe’s preference for the packing liquid.
How long does Superfresh Classic Tuna last after opening?

Can you freeze Superfresh Classic Tuna after opening?
Yes, you can freeze Superfresh Classic Tuna after transferring it from the can to a sealed, freezer-safe container. Thaw it in the refrigerator; freezing may change its texture, so thawed tuna works especially well in cooked dishes.
What can you make with Superfresh Classic Tuna besides a tuna sandwich?
Superfresh Classic Tuna also works in pasta, rice bowls, salads, wraps and baked potatoes. Add it near the end of cooking or mix it into the finished dish, since prolonged heating can make the tuna dry.
Can Superfresh Classic Tuna be heated in a pan?

How do you know if Superfresh Classic Tuna has gone bad?
