SALADE NIçOISE
This classic French salad, with its vibrant composition of fresh and cooked vegetables, unctuous oil-cured tuna, anchovies, and soft-boiled eggs, is filling enough to be a meal. Chef Boulud offers two options for dressing: a simple garnish of lemon and oil, or his grandmother's cherished vinaigrette recipe.

Steps:
- Potatoes: Fill a small saucepan with water. Add potatoes, thyme sprig, bay leaf, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Haricots vert: Fill a large saucepan with water and bring to a boil. When boiling, add a big pinch of salt, followed by haricots verts. Cook until tender with a slight snap, 4-9 minutes depending on size. Eggs: Fill a small saucepan with water and bring to a boil. When boiling, use a spoon to gently ease eggs into the water. Cook exactly 7½ minutes. Meanwhile, prepare two ice baths: Fill two large bowls with water and plenty of ice.
- Scallions: Trim away the very end of the root while keeping scallion intact; remove the thick outer layer. Cut away the dark green top, leaving a 3-inch length of white and light-green scallion. Make several 1-inch vertical cuts down the top to create a scallion "brush." Repeat with all the scallions and place them in an ice bath to preserve freshness. Radishes: Slice each radish lengthwise into thin slices. Set aside.
- When beans are mostly tender with a touch of firmness, use a strainer to transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking. Remove eggs and place them into the same ice bath. Check potatoes for doneness by piercing one with a knife; there should be no resistance. Remove potatoes and set aside; discard thyme and bay leaf. Peel eggs, slice in half lengthwise, and set aside.
- Assembly: On a serving platter, layer the Boston lettuce, followed by the baby gem. Slice potatoes in half lengthwise and distribute evenly, followed by haricots verts, scallions, whole tomatoes, radish, large chunks of tuna, and eggs. Garnish with leaves of basil and chervil.
- Pit olives (optional): Place olives on a flat surface. Press the bottom of a small bowl on the olives to loosen their pits; remove and discard the pits. Scatter the pitted olives over the salad. Next, tuck small bunches of arugula within the lettuce. Finally, finish assembling the salad by laying about 10 anchovies evenly across the top.
- Chef Boulud offers two options for dressing the salad. Lemon & Oil Dressing: Zest lemon evenly over the salad, then sprinkle with lemon juice. Drizzle with olive oil, and finish with pepper and salt. (Note: Use salt with moderation, since the tuna and anchovies are already salted.) Grand-Mère's Vinaigrette: In a bowl, add the sliced garlic and a pinch of salt. Use a fork to mash the garlic into a coarse paste. Add mustard, vinegar, and pepper; stir to combine. Add olive oil in a slow stream, whisking constantly with the fork to emulsify. Add a teaspoon of water at a time, whisking between additions, to thin vinaigrette as desired. Place vinaigrette into a serving dish and serve alongside the salad.

Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan; cover with cold water and season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook until fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and transfer to a medium bowl; drizzle with the wine and let cool. Reserve the saucepan.
- Meanwhile, bring a separate saucepan of salted water to a boil. Fill a bowl with salted ice water. Add the haricots verts to the boiling water; cook until crisp-tender and bright green, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and immediately plunge into the ice water to cool; drain and pat dry.
- Place the eggs in the reserved saucepan and cover with cold water by about 1 inch. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then cover, remove from the heat and let stand, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, then run under cold water to cool. Peel under cold running water.
- Make the dressing: Whisk the vinegar, shallot, mustard, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a bowl. Whisk in the olive oil in a slow, steady stream until emulsified.
- Toss the tomatoes ian a small bowl with salt and pepper to taste. Add about 1/4 cup dressing to the potatoes and toss. Quarter the hard-cooked eggs.
- Divide the lettuce among 4 plates. Arrange the potatoes, haricots verts, radishes, hard-cooked eggs and tuna on top. Pour any juices from the tomatoes into the dressing, then add the tomatoes to the plates. Drizzle with the dressing and top with the olives.

Steps:
- Dressing: In small bowl, whisk vinegar, mustard, anchovies and garlic. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside to let flavors meld. Fresh tuna: preheat oven to 375. Put tuna in baking dish, add 1 tsp olive oil, turn to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until tuna is opaque and just flakes with fork - 10-15 minutes. Remove, let cool and flake with hands into bowl. Toss with remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil and set aside. Place the potatoes and egg in a small saucepan and add water to cover. Place over medium-high heat, bring to simmer and adjust heat to gentle simmer. Using a slotted spoon, remove egg after 8 minutes and run until cold water until cool. Add salt to water and continue cooking potatoes until easily pierced wiht a knife, 5-10 minutes longer, and then lift them out with slotted spoon. Set aside to cool. Add the 1 cup water to the saucepan and some salt. Raise the heat to high and bring the water to a boil. Add the beans and cook until just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold running water to halt the cooking. Drain well, pat dry and then cut in half crosswise, if you like. Peel the hard boiled egg and slice. Peel the potatoes and slice 1/4 inch thick. Arrange the lettuce leaves in a large bowl. Top with tuna, potatoes, egg, beans and tomato. Scatter the olives over the salad, drizzle with dressing

Steps:
- Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon salt and bring to a boil. Cook until the potatoes are almost tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to a bowl and set aside.
- Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Set up a large bowl of ice water and line a sheet tray with a paper towel or kitchen towel. Generously season the boiling water with salt. Add the green beans and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a spider or drain in a colander and transfer to the ice bath. Once cooled, transfer the green beans to the lined sheet tray and pat dry.
- On a large platter or low bowl, arrange the Bibb lettuce, potatoes, grape tomatoes, green beans, eggs, olives and tuna.
- Whisk together the vinegar and Dijon with a little salt and pepper in a small bowl or measuring cup. Slowly stream in the oil while whisking until it is all combined and emulsified. Pour about half of the dressing over the salad, reserving the remaining dressing for serving. Serve with crusty French bread, if desired.

SALMON SALAD NIçOISE
There are a lot of steps in this salad, but it is worth every one, in my book! This is not a side, it's a main dish for 2. Salmon is subbed for traditional tuna here. Green beans, potatoes, and some normal salad items are all combined with the salmon to make a beautiful, satisfying plate. Bonus, there is no added sugar in the light and lovely vinaigrette.

Steps:
- Combine sherry vinegar, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice in a small bowl; stir briskly until vinaigrette is well combined.
- Add olive oil, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking briskly after each addition. Season with salt and pepper and whisk until well combined; set aside.
- Bring a pan of lightly salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add potatoes to boiling water and cook for 10 minutes, making sure the water level is above the potatoes. Add green beans and boil until beans are bright-green and tender crisp, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Sieve out green beans and place in an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain and place in a large bowl.
- Test potatoes for doneness by slightly piercing a potato with a sharp knife. If done, the knife should slip in with only a slight resistance. Drain potatoes, cool slightly, slice in half, and add to the bowl. Add bell pepper and drizzle vinaigrette over salad. Toss until well combined.
- Line a serving plate with lettuce leaves and arrange potatoes, green beans, and pepper strips on top. Evenly place olive halves around the salad.
- Lightly toss the sliced cherry tomatoes with olive oil and salt, and place around the plate.
- Place salmon flakes on top of salad. Slice egg in half, and place one half of the egg on each side of the plate. Serve.

Steps:
- To make the dressing, mash the garlic and anchovy, if using, with a small pinch of salt on a board using the blade of a large knife, or in a pestle and mortar. Combine the paste with the mustard and vinegar, then slowly stir in the tuna oil. Set aside.
- Tip the new potatoes into a large pan of cold salted water, ensuring they're well covered. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the beans and cook for 5 mins, then remove with a slotted spoon and immediately plunge into a bowl of iced water to cool. Cook the potatoes for another 5 mins until tender, then drain and leave to cool. When cool enough to handle, halve or quarter them, and toss in a large bowl with 1 tbsp of the dressing. Leave to cool completely.
- Meanwhile, cook the eggs in a second pan of simmering water for 7½ mins, then transfer to a bowl of iced water to cool. Drain the beans and eggs, then peel and halve the eggs.
- Tip the lettuce quarters, cooked beans and olives into the bowl with the potatoes. Add most of the remaining dressing and gently toss. Divide the salad between two bowls, and top with the tomatoes and eggs. Flake over the tuna, then drizzle with the rest of the dressing and season.
