Forshmak with tuna is an unusual but extremely tasty dish that originated in Jewish cuisine. Light in texture but rich in flavour, it will become your favourite addition to lunch or dinner. Despite its simplicity, forshmak always delights guests and inspires experimentation.


Variations

Forshmak can be made with more than just tuna. The classic version uses herring, but in our case, we choose the lightness and delicate flavour of tuna.


Secrets of tenderness and taste

To achieve the perfect texture, the dish should be chopped thoroughly, but not turned into a puree. Using a sufficient amount of oil also ensures softness.


Tips on ingredients

Choose tuna in its own juice or in olive oil. This will enhance the flavour of the forshmak and help keep the dish moist.


Small culinary nuances

Add a little lemon juice or apple cider vinegar to the dish to enhance the flavour and add freshness.
