Salade Niçoise

Salade Niçoise is a bright, composed salad from the French Riviera: tuna, hard-boiled eggs, green beans, potatoes, tomatoes, and Niçoise olives arranged over greens and dressed with a sharp Dijon vinaigrette. Every element stays distinct, so each bite is its own moment.

Perfect for a light lunch or a warm evening supper, it is traditionally built on a platter rather than tossed. Serve it with crusty bread and a chilled rosé, and let the anchovies join in if you like things salty.
