  • Originally from the region in France known as Nice, the niçoise salad is traditionally made with tuna, greens, tomatoes, anchovies, black olives, capers, hardboiled eggs, green beans, and vinaigrette dressing.

    While often placed in many a niçoise salad recipes, the ingredients, rice, potatoes, cheese, pasta or cooked vegetables, are not classic parts of the salad.

    When a niçoise salad is placed between two pieces of bread, making a sandwich, it is known as a pan-bagnat.
