FAQ

  • Can I use fresh tuna instead of canned?

    Yes, you can use cooked and flaked fresh tuna. Ensure it is sustainably sourced and cooked to a safe internal temperature.
  • What if I don't have coconut aminos?

    You can substitute coconut aminos with a small amount of tamari or soy sauce, but be aware that these are not strictly Paleo. Alternatively, you can use a pinch of sea salt for seasoning.
