From neighborhood bakeries to classic diners, here’s where to satisfy your craving for a nostalgic tuna melt sandwich in Southern California.
The tuna melt combines two of America‘s most glorious diner sandwiches: the grilled cheese and the tuna salad. According to legend, its origins trace to a lunch counter at a Woolworth’s department store in Charleston, S.C. In 1960, a cook accidentally spilled some tuna salad on a grilled cheese sandwich, inadvertently discovering a beloved combination.
A traditional tuna melt features griddled bread, tuna salad, melted cheese and, more often than not, a side of bread and butter pickles. The tuna salad should be creamy and the cheese should be gooey, all pressed together with crispy, buttery bread. There are countless variations on the tuna melt. Some versions call for Swiss cheese, while others add sharp cheddar. The sandwich can be served open-faced or closed, with rye bread, sourdough or in some cases, an English muffin.that’s often used in tuna melts has experienced a sort of renaissance thanks to brands like Fishwife, a woman-owned, premium tinned fish company with an emphasis on ethically sourced seafood.
