👨‍🍳 Method

For the Dressed Salad

1. 1
   Drain the tuna well and flake it in a bowl with a fork.

   💡Drain the tuna well: liquid left in it thins the mayonnaise, and the salad comes out watery.
2. 2
   Put the egg, mustard, salt and black pepper in the blender jar and blend about half a minute.

3. 3
   Add the oil in a thin, slow stream, while the blender is running, until a thick emulsion forms.

   Blender

   💡The thin stream is everything: fat that goes in too fast can't bind, and the sauce breaks. For mayonnaise and hollandaise, if this happens, start with a fresh yolk and slowly add the broken sauce to it; if the sauce is too thick, thin it with a teaspoon of water.
4. 4
   Add the lemon juice and stir. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

7. 7
   Add the paprika, parsley, salt and black pepper and mix gently, until evenly combined.
