Preparation
- Step 1
Bring four quarts of salted water to a boil, add the farfalle and cook about eight minutes, until just tender. Drain well, rinse under cold water, drain again and toss with two tablespoons of the oil. Set aside.
- Step 2
Heat the remaining oil in a heavy skillet, add the onion and fennel and saute until translucent. Stir in the garlic, cook another minute, then add the tomatoes, cook five minutes more and remove from the heat. Add the parsley, capers and olives. Pour over the farfalle and fold in.
- Step 3
Drain the tuna, reserving the oil. Flake the tuna and fold it into the farfalle mixture. Add the vinegar, fold again, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Add as much of the oil from the tuna as desired. Serve at room temperature.
