Twists on tuna
Fishing for something different
BY JENNIFER CACICIO

With tuna fish, it’s a love-or-hate relationship. For me, it’s on the side of a big red heart; whether it be a dented tin of Bumblebee or a fancy jar of imported Spanish Ortiz tuna ($10.95) at Formaggio Kitchen (244 Huron Avenue, Cambridge; 268 Shawmut Avenue, Boston), I’m content. The best part is how versatile it is, how you can dress it up with almost anything you might have in the fridge. Fortunately, a few places in Boston have taken it upon themselves to create some new taste inventions, which have saved me from making a mess of my lunch. Flour Bakery (1595 Washington Street, Boston) boasts a sandwich with herbed tuna, sliced hard-boiled eggs, olive tapenade, and pickled carrots ($6.50). The ingredients are laid between two pieces of fresh white focaccia bread, making a smooth and tangy meal. The deli counters at Whole Foods have also come up with a perfect combo: sweet tuna fish, dried cranberries, Fuji apples, and an abundance of spices, most predominately fresh dill ($7.99/pound). This tuna makes a delicious sandwich or salad, but if you’re like me, all you’ll need is a fork.
