About tuna salad

Canned tuna mixed with mayonnaise, celery, and dijon mustard, a cold, chunky mix eaten on bread or over greens.

What cooks argue about

Cooks argue over draining the tuna fully dry before mixing, which keeps the salad from turning watery, or leaving in a little liquid, which adds moisture but can thin the mayonnaise.
