    Hope it's okay to post here, if not apologies, I used to do a great pasta dish with chilli and tuna, but the tuna I used was in a jar, not canned, and was just great quality, but now I can't find the tuna in a jar. Anyone know where I can find it?

    Ortiz tuna? Most good Italian delis should have jarred tuna. Little Italy or Fallon & Byrnes in Dublin would be a goo start.

    The reason that the Ortiz tuna is good is that its Albacore Tuna.
    Much tastier and better than the Skipjack/Yellowfin that you get in tins.

    The better news is that its actually Tuna season here and Albacore is being landed in Ireland right now by Irish boats.
    You could get fresh Tuna and make the same dish yourself!

    A few weeks ago they had some jars of Albacore tuna in Lidl. They may have some left in their clearance section if you look.
