Poach two tuna slices in a fish stock. They may still be a little
rosé inside. Let them cool off completely when drained and
then put them covered in the refrigerator..
In the meantime, make the other preparations: chop two
shallots, make 2 hard-boiled eggs, let them cool off and chop
them finely. Chop fresh wild garlic leaves and a few stems of
chives.
Mix a few tablespoons of mayonnaise with a tablespoon of
mustard. Season with piment d'Espelette and a twist from the
pepper mill.
tuna salad with wild garlic
Crumble the tuna in the cutter. Now mingle the mustard
mayonnaise with chopped shallot, drained capers, minced
egg, crumbled tuna, chives and wild garlic. Adjust the flavor
with lime juice and a pinch of salt.
If necessary, add another spoonful of mayonnaise if the result
seems too "dry". The result must be a smooth mass. It is best
kept in a closed container and used as a sandwich spread.

Wild garlic is only available for a short period of time in
March and April. It is rarely found in the commercial offer
of food shops. Those who have it in their vegetable
garden should count themselves lucky, because the taste
of this plant is very refined and fits both in cold
preparations such as this tuna salad, as well as in hot
sauces or dishes.
