Notes
When you’re using canned tuna, watch out for the water content! It’s important to drain the tuna completely or else the mayonnaise and spices will pool to the bottom and lose their flavor.
I am not a big fan of the saltier brines of pickles, so we went with gherkins, which are more on the sweeter end. You are free to use your favorite pickle, but we recommend dill or gherkins as they have just a little more flavor and bite than others, which will enhance the dish overall.
You can make the separate ingredients in advance like the tuna salad and slice the ingredients to have them ready. I would recommend not adding them together as the tuna may make the bun and the rest of the ingredients soggy.
