Words & Brush Recipe Corner: The Famous TUNA SANDWICH from the Basque Country | Bocadillo de Bonito

 The Famous TUNA SANDWICH from the Basque Country | Bocadillo de Bonito

 Author Albert Bevia @ Spain on a Fork, February 18, 2026


Spain is famously known for their bocadillos (sandwiches), and this tuna sandwich from the Basque Country, known as “bocadillo de bonito,” is no exception. It’s filled with flavors, super easy to make, and done within minutes with absolutely no cooking.

To make this sandwich, I used Spanish canned tuna in olive oil, known as bonito del norte. Which is all white tuna. Of course, you can use any type of canned tuna you like. Though using the Spanish one truly elevates the flavors of this sandwich.

As for the rest of the ingredients, you will need some canned anchovies in olive oil and some Spanish guindilla peppers, which are very similar to pepperoncini. I also made a simple garlic mayonnaise. Which brings it all together.

Prep. time 10 minutes, makes 3 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 baguette
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise 120 grams
  • 2 cloves garlic (finely grated)
  • 1 tsp lemon juice 5 ml
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 15 ml
  • 2 cans tuna in olive oil 4 oz / 110 grams each
  • 1 can anchovies in olive oil 3 oz / 70 grams
  • 9 Spanish guindilla peppers (similar to pepperchinis)
  • sea salt & black pepper
  • chopped chives for garnish


Directions 

Add the mayonnaise into a bowl, along with the grated garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil, then season with salt & pepper, and whisk together

Drain the cans of tuna into a fine sieve with a bowl underneath, gently flake the tuna

Drain the can of anchovies, and cut the guindilla peppers into small bite-sized pieces

Cut the baguette into 6-inch-long (15 cm) sandwiches, then cut each one in half lengthwise

Spread the garlic mayo on both sides of the sandwich, then add some tuna over one slice, along with a couple of anchovies, some guindilla peppers, and top it off with chopped chives, enjoy!

Words & Brush Recipe Corner: Sweet lemon dipping sauce

Sweet lemon dipping sauce

This tangy-sweet sauce is perfect as a dip for chicken strips or fish sticks. It’s made with just a few pantry staples and ingredients you have on hand, it comes together quickly, and adds a flavourful pop to every bite.
Ingredients:

Yields 1 cup of dipping sauce
1½ cups clear broth (any kind) or water
Juice of 1 lemon

¼ cup honey
2 Tbsp. cornstarch
1 Tbsp. flour
Scallions for garnish (optional)
Optional (if using water instead of broth):
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions: 

Place all ingredients in a small pot and whisk until smooth. If using water, add the optional spices for extra flavor.

Cook over low heat, stirring often, and bring to a gentle boil. Let simmer for about 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently until the cornstarch and the flour are fully dissolved.

Taste and adjust the lemon or honey to your liking. Continue cooking until the sauce thickens – it will thicken more as it cools.

Serve warm for dipping.



  1. Enjoy!
