Instructions
Place the eggs into a saucepan in a single layer, and fill with water to cover the eggs by 1 inch. Cover, and bring the water to a boil over high heat.
Remove pan from heat, and let the eggs stand in the hot water for 15 minutes.
Pour out the hot water, then cool the eggs under cold running water in the sink. Peel and chop once cold.
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Stir the chopped eggs together with the mayonnaise, tuna, relish, onion, olives, and cheese in a mixing bowl. Divide the tuna mixture onto the bun bottoms, then replace the bun tops. Wrap each sandwich individually in aluminum foil, and place onto a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese has melted and the tuna salad has heated through, 10 to 15 minutes.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Pinot Noir, Rose Wine
Tuna works really well with Merlot, Pinot Noir, and rosé Wine. Though fish is often paired with white wine, 'meatier' fish like tuna can absolutely go with red wine. A Rosé will also pair nicely, particularly if your tunan is prepared with ingredients better suited to a white wine. The Peju Province Merlot with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 38 dollars per bottle.
Peju Province Merlot
Deep ruby in color, the 2016 Merlot offers fragrant, layered aromas of juicy pomegranate, baking spice, and a hint of cedar. Lush fruits of cherry and blackberry envelop the palate. Soft hints of toasted almond and vanilla culminate with an elegant finish. Delicious now, this Merlot will continue to mature for the next 6-8 years.Blend: 95% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Sauvignon, 1% Petit Sirah
