What is Tuna (Superfresh classic)?
Tuna (Superfresh classic) is ready-to-eat canned tuna, made from tuna that has been cooked and preserved in a can. Its mild, savoury flavour and flaky texture make it easy to use in quick meals. Across the English-speaking world, it is commonly stirred into salads, layered into sandwiches, or mixed with pasta; you can also serve it with beans, vegetables and a squeeze of lemon. Drain it before adding it to a dish if you want to keep the flavours from becoming too rich.
