After some swatching, I found a subtle change can make those little V stitches really stand out and reduce the curl as well. Substitute the TSS to the Modified TSS.
A video tutorial for Tunisian Tweed Stitch is available from Hookloopsarah Crochet.
A tutorial for the Tunisian Twisted Simple Stitch is available from Rachel Henri Crochet Design. There are a couple of different ways to create the Twisted Simple Stitch. One twists the stitch with an upward motion (this one is used in the Tweed Stitch) and the other uses a downward motion. The results are very different.
Begin with a Foundation Row:
Chain any even quantity, beginning in the 2nd chain from the hook, pull up a loop in each chain. Basic return pass.
Tunisian Tweed Stitch
ROW 1 - Forward Pass – Skip 1st vertical bar directly beneath the hook, *TSS (or Modified TSS), TWS*, repeat *-* across row to the last stitch, insert your hook under both vertical bars of the last stitch (it should look like a v on the outer edge of the work) and pull up a loop.
Basic Return Pass
ROW 2 - Forward Pass – Skip 1st vertical bar directly beneath the hook, TWS, *TSS (or Modified TSS), TWS*, repeat *-* across row to the next to last stitch, TSS, insert your hook under both vertical bars of the last stitch and pull up a loop.
Basic Return Pass
Repeat rows 1 & 2 to your desired length ending with a ROW 1.
Bind Off
Bind off in pattern as ROW2, completing each stitch with a slst.
