To use, simply drain the water from the can. The solid pieces of tuna can then be flaked with a fork. It is commonly mixed with mayonnaise, celery, and seasonings to create tuna salad. This salad can be served on bread, crackers, or lettuce.
How it differs from similar foods
Solid white albacore tuna is distinct from chunk light tuna. Solid pack refers to larger, whole pieces of tuna, while chunk light typically contains smaller, broken pieces. Albacore tuna also has a lighter color and a milder taste compared to skipjack or yellowfin tuna.

After opening, transfer any unused tuna to a sealed container. Refrigerate the leftover tuna and consume within two days. Keep unopened cans in a cool, dry pantry away from direct sunlight.
