pro tip: you did well to start each side separate, but you should let the cheese get mostly melted before adding a cold ingredient (tuna, ham, peppers, etc.). Nice clean stove!
people are so negative, this is how he does his and it looks good just add and delete what you like and don't like just looking at the comments I also got a number of additives and substitute spices that can be useful / I also added Monterey jack cheese on one side and smoke cheddar cheese on the other with a tomato added in I like variety, taste good too! Just do to your taste every individual is different remember that!
+Gloria Jordan Yep, I say that all the time. If you don't like that much mayo, don't add as much. You are the one making it so you make it the way you want it.
What a simple and yummy looking meal. Thanks so much for sharing. I thought it would be like a grilled cheese, but I wouldn't have though to put the lid on to help the heat warm the inside of the sandwich. Lovely video.
The only other thing some readers may enjoy is a slice of tomato in the tuna melt. This is what I do when making a grilled cheese sandwich. Just getting good nutrients into one's body. Never had a tuna melt before, but often see it on lunch menus at restaurants. Bravo
Looks really good! Now you got me craving a tuna melt! I like to use a little bit of pickle relish mixed with the tuna and mayo and a slice of either American, Cheddar, or Monterey Jack/Pepper Jack cheese. But, to each his own. Great video, nonetheless. Thanks, Tom.
Sears Roebuck had a restaurant when I worked there! I loved the tuna melts and coffee breaks. Eight hours of work allowed two fifteen minute breaks. A half hour lunch was also allowed.
Tom made your tuna melt sandwich don’t have the season you used so used basil it was loverly so once again thank you very much for the recipe Rhonda from Australia
Jon Greene I use Lightworks, it's a free open source editor used by the pros. It is very powerful, takes some getting used to but there are a lot of great tutorials on youtube showing how to use it. www.lwks.com
Tom thank you so much for this video on how to make a Tuna melt (I just finished eating mine and it was absolutely tasty)!! I know this may sound weird..........but I'm a newbie to cooking and your videos have made it easy for me to start preparing/cooking food for my family. Everything I have made (from your vids) has been so frick'in delicious!! Thank you!!
Never liked fish started to try weight loss so I'm trying tuna for the first time I get on TH-cam looking for a recipe something good and came across this I did the same thing cept I used a lime and yellow cheese it was amazing thank you my friend
Thanks, they are really good. You can make the tuna salad the way you like, I just make it this way. My wife insists, personally I like adding chopped jalapeno.
I will try this sandwich with less mayo, less spike (thanks for sharing spike, that is new to me), and more/different cheese! Thanks for the video, Tom! Happy eating :)
I love tuna melts Tom! The spike seasoning sounds awesome and seems like it has a lot of ingredients in it. Awesome sandwich and great studio lighting, really brightens things up ✖‿✖
Be aware that today cans of tuna contain 5 oz of tuna, not 7. A number of years ago, they reduced the tuna in a can to 6 oz. Then it went down to 5 oz (without lowering the price, of course!) About then, I quit buying tuna (which I love), and replaced it with mackerel. It tastes the same (they're the same family of fish), and costs a lot less. You just have to de-bone it. By the way, any sort of tuna salad is better if you add chopped ripe olives.
You're shopping at the wrong stores. Costco cans are always 7oz Kirkland Signature Solid White Albacore Tuna, 56 Ounce www.amazon.com/dp/B0056YT4M0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_dva3zbJBHGCET
You know when your hungry? And someone else is making a sandwich? And it looks and smells 10x better than if you made it yourself? That's about how this feels.
yes this looks good. im from newzealand I have never come across the word 'melt' in reference to this kind of sandwich, we would call this a cheese toastie
With dill weed and chopped green onion is good in it as well or I think so its to each his own/tastes and like to have on toasted fancy-ish bread like croissant or other
Naaice, I was kinda drooling. I could smell the butter on the bread from here. But its too fatty, I guess i will add lesser of everything you said, esp mayo. Anyway thank you for sharing your recipe. God bless you.
thats very weird. theres only one mayonese. of course there is stuff in there so it survives longer in your frisge but mayonese is mayonese at least where i come from
Mouthwatering! I prepare my tuna melt with Tillamook Cheddar on both bread slices. So indulgent!
Made this when I was home alone and there was nothings else to eat, surprisingly filling and really good.
It is pretty good, right!
was anybody else getting chills when the fork was scraping the bowl?!
no. its just you
yes me too i reduced my vol
I had took out my headphone
Reduced volume I hate that sound
Yusuf Khan thats my favorite sound
Why am I watching this at 3 am while I'm starving 😩
Happens to the best of us!
IHeArTrOcK20 fucking same 😂😂😂😭😭😭😭
Lololol... Try the real thing, Tuna Melt, Yeaaaa...
IHeArTrOcK20 same omg 😂😂😭😭
Omg, same lol
I have never had a tuna melt, but I will for supper tonight. Thanks for the video!
+Bosco Hemi Thanks, how did it turn out?
+Tom's Test Kitchen It was Perfect! I will be having lots more from now on, Thanks to you.
Keep those ideas coming..Love your channel!
Thanks, I love it!
pro tip: you did well to start each side separate, but you should let the cheese get mostly melted before adding a cold ingredient (tuna, ham, peppers, etc.). Nice clean stove!
why should he wait for the cheese to get melted
That looks yummy. I put onion and dill pickle in my tuna salad. So tasty! Thanks for sharing :)

Some people just like to complain. Try to avoid those people in life.
Tomato in it sounds good. I’d add celery and onions. But like he said that’s how he likes it and that’s fine
I just made this. it was my first time having it. I added some celery it was soo good. Thanks for the video
This is the best tuna salad melt. Simple yet so delicious
created a channel just to say thank you for this simple, easy-to-follow recipe and video. Just made this for my significant other and we love it!
Thanks Toni, stay tuned for more!
What a simple and yummy looking meal. Thanks so much for sharing. I thought it would be like a grilled cheese, but I wouldn't have though to put the lid on to help the heat warm the inside of the sandwich. Lovely video.
Great recipe,,,,,,looks very tasty! Yummy !
The only other thing some readers may enjoy is a slice of tomato in the tuna melt. This is what I do when making a grilled cheese sandwich. Just getting good nutrients into one's body. Never had a tuna melt before, but often see it on lunch menus at restaurants. Bravo
I agree, even a simple grilled cheese sandwich can be elevated by adding a slice of ripe red tomato.
Thanks Tom never heard of them before they look yummy going to try them all the way from Australia
wzd
what sort of big ass teaspoon of spike was dat
Adz Karleone it was more like a cup of spike
*Tablespoon
Lol
Mumtas Noor *idiot
Must admire the irony.（〜^∇^)〜
Adz Karleone right
Very nice Tom. Quick and easy and good. I love these! I can eat them all day long. And the lighting is awesome
Thanks Russ, I could eat them all day as well.

Those lights look awesome! The tuna melt looks awesome as well!
Green screen? What video software are y'all using? I guess not the free windows movie maker huh? LOL
Jon Greene I use Lightworks, it's a free open source editor used by the pros. It is very powerful, takes some getting used to but there are a lot of great tutorials on youtube showing how to use it. www.lwks.com
Looks fantastic!
So scrummey. Delicious.
I've never tried Spike, but I'll need to look for it. Have you ever tried it with a rye bread? It gives it a unique twist.
I've never seen anything like it! what a break from the norm, i'll definitely give it a try.
Wildhoney Thanks, it's one of my wife's all time favorites.
Huge difference the lighting makes. HUGE! Nice look'n sammer too!
It really does Greg, thanks

spike is great on a lot things .. popcorn for one.. pork chops are awesome with spike .. love spike..lol
You made a delicious looking sandwich. Now i NEED a tuna melt.
ericakelly123 Ha ha, that happens to me too. I see a comment on this video and I think to myself "I need a tuna melt".
I literally tried this an hour ago and it was awesome 😁🐟 and that cheese melted so well
I love tuna and mayo together it's like heaven
+Dark Wolf Amen!
Never liked fish started to try weight loss so I'm trying tuna for the first time I get on TH-cam looking for a recipe something good and came across this I did the same thing cept I used a lime and yellow cheese it was amazing thank you my friend
Marcos Galarza That's awesome Marcos, good luck on the weight loss effort. I know it's tough.
I Love Tuna but never made a Tuna Melt, but I will now. Looks Yummy..............
I need to make this for my family. It looks delicious
Thanks, it is really tasty!
great lighting!
Thanks Stephanie, it really does make a difference
I never had one but this week I will try it out. Looks good. Thanks for sharing it.
Thanks, they are really good. You can make the tuna salad the way you like, I just make it this way. My wife insists, personally I like adding chopped jalapeno.
Tom seems like one of those cool older guys that doesn't give a shit or take shit from anybody
+Adam Dean Shafi You are correct sir!
:P
This inspired me to get up off my butt and make myself a sandwich.
and how was it?
lol! I don't have to get inspired!
Same! 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣
Awesome! I love those things. I'll have to look for Spike. I'm all about seasonings.
Appreciate you sharing this with us!
I love 'Spike' but have only used it on baked potatoes or double baked potatoes. I will have to try this, thank you!
It's really good in a lot of things Michael
Great sandwich and lighting.
Thanks!
mouth is watering! Definitely going to make this!
I will try this sandwich with less mayo, less spike (thanks for sharing spike, that is new to me), and more/different cheese! Thanks for the video, Tom! Happy eating :)
+Chris Bamford That's great Chris, you are the chef so make it the way you like it!
Thats it...im coming over and your making me one!! Lol
I love tuna melts Tom! The spike seasoning sounds awesome and seems like it has a lot of ingredients in it. Awesome sandwich and great studio lighting, really brightens things up ✖‿✖
Thanks Ange, tuna melts are one of my all time favorite diner foods. The lighting really does brighten things up. Can you find Spike in Australia?
Never heard of spike tom I don't think so :/I need to move to the USA I think
FitAnge S ok, add that to the list of things I need to send you
Awe Tom you have a heart of gold. I need your postal address through on on FB when your ready if that's ok
I think you over did it on the Mayo. Cilantro goes really well with Tuna.
parsley too
Sweet pickles
Thank you so much! I couldn't find much to eat at my house,but this helped me put something good together.
That's awesome, glad I could help!
Well done. Good radio voice and simple tuna melt
I haven't had a tuna melt in years,,,gonna have to soon....lighting looked great.
Thanks, I was just craving tuna melts. The lighting is going to really help.
OMG !!! 1 am and am hungry ! Looks soooo delish! Thank you 😊
You are welcome and thanks for not complaining about the amount of mayo.
Thank you for this......I've heard the term but never seen one made. Looks really good. I'll have to get some Spike.
I love tuna, so I will try this. Looks good
Mayo Melt Sandwich, with a hint of Tuna!! NICE!!!
What can I say, I like my mayo.
I have never had one of these tuna melts, I might try one lol. It looks good.
Give it a try, they are really good.
Great lighting, Tom. I've never even heard of Spike. Now that I have heard of it, I'll probably start seeing it here and there.
Thanks Dan, you might be able to find it locally.
looks so yummy. makes me really hungry
Well, you know how to make it now!
Why is this so satisfying to watch while high?
The new lights looked great Tom and so did your tuna melt! Happy New Year brother!
Thanks Troy, I'm really diggin' these lights. Can't wait to play around with the green screen.

By the way, any sort of tuna salad is better if you add chopped ripe olives.
I agree with everything you said until you mentioned olives, that is so wrong on so many levels
you're getting old if you think tuna is the same with mackerel. Go eat some more mackerel and let the tuna to the real food enthusiasts.
just got finished eating mackerel and crawfish. Fishy sorta night
You're shopping at the wrong stores. Costco cans are always 7oz Kirkland Signature Solid White Albacore Tuna, 56 Ounce www.amazon.com/dp/B0056YT4M0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_dva3zbJBHGCET
Looks like a great mayo melt.
Going to try this today. Already got mixture in the fridge and gotta use Shredded cheese 😀😀 its gonna be good
Just wondering, how many minutes do you typically let the bread cook on each side?
Looks good!
LittleJerryFan92 2-4 mins depending how toasty you like it
Hellman's has a version with Olive Oil that goes great for Tuna sandwhiches too. Good video, thanks!
The lighting looks good and now I know why my sandwiches are so good because I cut them all diagonally :-)
It does make a difference doesn't it.
Yummylicious! I'm sure ur wife was thrilled!
this made my mouth water
Mission accomplished! Thanks
when my hubby and i make this we butter ther bread in sted of the pan, comes out great
Gonna make this for lunch tomorrow yum
scraping that fork in the bowl is awesome!
commenting about scraping the fork in the bowl is equally awesome!
You know when your hungry? And someone else is making a sandwich? And it looks and smells 10x better than if you made it yourself? That's about how this feels.
That is what I will make for lunch tomorrow :) Thanks!
I love tuna melts! I tried one at the mall and I fell in love with it!❤❤❤❤
That looks really good!
looks gooooood!!!
I'm getting hungry and its 9am... Can't wait to try Spike...
I am going to look for your “Spike” seasoning!
argh metal fork on metal bowl!!
Jamie Le'scot 😭😭
Lights did a great job, and the sandwich looks good too Tom :D
Thanks Rus, the lighting turned out really good. Definitely a smart investment. The sandwich really hit the spot too.
mmmmmmmmm that sounds delicious!!! 😋 turmueric is good in the tuna!!! (idk how to spell it!!)😆😆
I bet it is, there might be some in Spike.
Looking Good. I will try!
I like your butter method!
Thanks, it's the best method I've found.
A little tuna with your mayo??? looks good! This is what's for dinner in our house tonight! LOL
Washington State
Hey, I like a lot of mayo with my tuna. Make it to your own liking.
it looks delicious
Good stuff needed some protein after my workout and all I had was canned tuna at my house! Made it with pepper jack and some red pepper flakes 🌶
Yum, sounds good, I love pepper jack.
Try the same sandwich tightly pressed into a well buttered G Foreman grill. Good results.
Adding this video to my "watch later" so I can make it later :)
yes this looks good. im from newzealand I have never come across the word 'melt' in reference to this kind of sandwich, we would call this a cheese toastie
+Sam Johnstone ghey
Haven't usad white bread in over 45yrs!
With dill weed and chopped green onion is good in it as well or I think so its to each his own/tastes and like to have on toasted fancy-ish bread like croissant or other
looks yummy . im gonna try these tomorrow thanks!
+wakkinito Let us know how you liked it!
it's really good! thanks
I like spike, it's a good flavor adder.
***** sure does!
Naaice, I was kinda drooling. I could smell the butter on the bread from here. But its too fatty, I guess i will add lesser of everything you said, esp mayo.
Anyway thank you for sharing your recipe. God bless you.
Alfred Thomas Thanks. Yes Alfred, you make it the way you want. I like a lot of mayo in mine, just cut back or use a light or low-fat mayo.
Thank you for the inspiration. Looks great! :)
great stuff gonna try this.
why does the glas say real mayonnaise on it ?? is there something like unreal mayonnaise in america ??
Tony Montana I think it's just a marketing gimmick.
Yes... MOST sandwich spreads are made of FAKE MAYO, which has extra sugar to make it more appealing to kids.
thats very weird. theres only one mayonese. of course there is stuff in there so it survives longer in your frisge but mayonese is mayonese at least where i come from
Köllefornia 4711 mayonaise* fridge*
Yes. Anything that is not Hellman’s!
Omg this was so delicious great recipe
Galaxy Thirst Thank you, I think so too!
I got all your items and it taste amazing
That's awesome, glad you liked it!
That looks so so good!
+All Things Tashy Thanks, it was.
I don't like mayo so I made it with Heinz salad cream and it was yummy.
That's a British thing right?
