In a recent episode of the ‘2 Bears, 1 Cave‘ podcast, Matthew McConaughey revealed what his favorite food was. ‘I’m a tuna salad master.’ ‘Every Sunday night, I clean out the fridge [and] make it.’
Matthew has thus self-proclaimed himself as the great salad guru for his ‘star recipe’ with tuna, peas and wasabi, which his own wife Camila has opined is ‘great’ and awaits some secret ingredients that he did not want to reveal.
‘He is a master of tuna salad. Anyone who tries to replicate, it doesn’t even come close,’ said Camila. ‘But it’s not just a traditional tuna salad. He puts all kinds of things in it. I don’t want to give away his secrets because I don’t know what he’s shared.’
The recipe
To carry it out, the base has to be a ‘good tuna‘, according to the star of ‘Interstellar’, to which she adds a touch of lemon and vinegar. He then enhances the flavor of the tuna with a mixture of wasabi mayonnaise.
After adding a bit of Italian dressing, the interpreter makes it unique with chopped red onions and thinly sliced dill pickles. He intensifies it all with a little spice: crunchy jalapeño chips, a little apple to sweeten it up, and a touch of agave and corn. Finally, he throws frozen green peas into the mix.
McConaughey recommends eating this tuna salad the next day, once all the flavors have melded and balanced the saltiness and spiciness harmoniously.
