  1. 1

    Wash the lettuce in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Tear the lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Drain the canned tuna well and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess oil.

  2. 2

    Place the lettuce and tuna in a bowl. Add the ★ seasonings and gently toss together, being careful to incorporate air into the salad.

  3. 3

    Finally, tear the nori sheet and add it along with the white sesame seeds. Lightly toss everything together and serve.

Tips

Warm the toasted nori in the microwave at 500W for about 20 seconds just before adding to make it extra crispy. Adjust the salt to your taste. Since canned tuna already contains salt, add the salt gradually to avoid over-seasoning.
