Tuna Oil Dressing (salad dressing)

Okay, it's just quick and dirty.

in a small mixing bowl:

Oil from one can of tuna, in this case albacore in olive oil
dash of fresh garlic, crushed or microplaned
1 tsp brown sugar

mix together until sugar is mostly dissolved

1/2+ Tbsp dijon mustard, place to one side of the mixing bowl

slowly combine oil mixture into the mustard, trying to keep things thick as we go

2-4 Tbsp american mayo (hellmans, best food), place to one side of the mixing bowl

slowly combine oil mixture into the mayo, trying to keep things thick as we go

1-2 tsp capers
1-2 tsp simple syrup, or none at all

season with salt to balance flavor with sweetness and add bite if you want it for a big salad


OPTIONS:
 Instead of simple syrup at the end use citrus juice.  Orange would be nice.

 Add mild vinegar at the end for more zing.

 You can also add zest for a nice flavor.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:
 Put that tuna on a plate, pour this dressing over, or around it, top with orange or other citrus zest.
 Serve with romaine lettuce spears to scoop and eat.
