You will be surprised to find out that the tuna salad recipe by Subway is nothing more than just regular tuna and mayonnaise. In fact, they do not even put any salt in it. There is no monosodium glutamate or any other artificial flavoring. Probably, it is the reason why the taste of the tuna comes out in such distinct way.
Of course, the kind of mayonnaise you will use also contributes in your attempt to copy the tuna salad recipe by Subway. If you haven’t noticed yet, there are lots of different types and brands of mayonnaise available in the grocery store. You just have to know the right one to use. That is if you really want to copy the distinct taste of the tuna salad recipe by Subway. Otherwise, your favorite brand of mayonnaise might do more good for you.
It is really difficult to find out Subway’s brand of mayonnaise. A friend of mine who used to work at Subway said that the mayonnaise comes in huge gallon jugs that do not have any labels on it. As for the tuna, Subway uses the packaged tuna instead of the canned ones or the ones in water or oil. We tried to use Kraft and Heinz for the mayonnaise and it did taste the same as Subway.
Again, it doesn’t really matter what it taste like but how it taste like. Subway’s, after all, is not the best tuna salad recipe on earth. Who knows? Yours might taste even better.
