Consider making a simple tuna salad with fresh tuna instead of canned
would the end result be a delicious tuna salad the canned variety could never compete with
or would it be exactly the same and I have just squandered an expensive ingredient when a cheap one would be sufficient?
Mistake
The only salad that should be made with fresh tuna is poke
Fuck that, if you're going to shill out for good tuna savor it. Do not dilute the experience with a bunch of bullshit. Learn how to cook well or how make sushi if you want to appreciate good tuna.

but there isn't much better than a nice tuna salad sandwich on toasted white bread with a glass of milk

Save the fresh tuna for ceviche. If it's just something you're going to put on sandwiches then just use the canned stuff.

not if you over cook it.
when i cooked for a living we would get in nice chunks of very fresh tuna which would be used primarily for dinner and appetizers. We would trim and clean the steaks and that "scrap" would be used for tuna salad. Pop it in the steamer for a few minutes...onion celery mayo salt pepper thyme... tuna salad.

Don't waste good tuna on shit like salad. Just eat it in sushi. Or sear it. Anything else is unacceptable.

This. I tried it once and it was glorious.
No fresh tuna is great in a salad but not as Tuna salad. Sear it coated in seseame seeds and put over mixed green with gold Yukons, green beans, onions, olives, tomatoes, maybe a hard boiled egg
Got to agree with everyone else. Good tuna should be eaten without all the other crap.
I cook it like a blue steak. High as fuck heat but really quickly.
Or if it's fresh enough, chow that shit raw. Pengalengadingdong desu senpai
