Fun fact about me: I’m allergic to all fish except tuna! Yes, yes, it’s possible, and I’m glad because tuna is really versatile and a superb source of protein. To show it off to its best advantage, I think there’s nothing better than a good tuna tartare! This one is in honor of one of my favorite tapas: pan con tomate! Honestly, this recipe is a revelation, I just couldn’t stop!

I tasted it with chips and it was exquisite!

Enjoy!
