Mediterranean

Grilled Tuna Salad has a rich history dating back to ancient Mediterranean civilizations, where tuna was a staple food. The dish gained popularity in the 20th century, particularly in coastal regions like the Mediterranean, Japan, and Hawaii, where fresh tuna is abundant. Renowned chefs like Nobu Matsuhisa and Jamie Oliver have put their own spin on this classic, elevating it to gourmet status. The key to a perfect Grilled Tuna Salad lies in the quality of the tuna, the marinade, and the grilling technique. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in upscale seafood restaurants and beachside eateries, where the freshest tuna is expertly grilled and served atop crisp, vibrant greens.
