DO NOT USE THE CUISINART. Mix together the onions, capers, cornichons, parsley, egg yolks, mustard, oil, vinegar, Worcestershire, Tabasco, salt and pepper. Using a very sharp knife, chop tuna into a coarse small dice. Don't want it gummy, but don't want any large chunks. Think of steak tartar for consistency. Turn the tartar into a serving bowl. Refrigerate well-covered. Can be made 4 hours ahead, but not overnight. Can be placed over crushed ice to serve, but it is not absolutely necessary. Just before serving, preheat the broiler (can use a toaster) and toast the French bread until lightly toasted. Comments
