Rice salads are a summer must for both meals at home and at work or outside.
Black rice with its particular color creates a beautiful contrast in the dish, and enriching it with the ingredients we have in the pantry is a very fun game.
Today I chose to taste it in combination with a very creamy tuna sauce that makes every bite delicious and dispels the myth according to which fish does not go well with cheese.
