Wow, what a delightful video showcasing the amazing Nicoise salad! I absolutely loved how beautifully it captured the essence of this classic French dish. From the vibrant colors of the fresh ingredients to the meticulous arrangement on the plate, every detail was a feast for the eyes. The way the video highlighted the medley of flavors in the Nicoise salad was truly mouthwatering. The combination of crisp lettuce, tender green beans, perfectly boiled eggs, briny olives, and succulent tuna was simply divine. I could almost taste the tangy vinaigrette dressing, which added the perfect touch of brightness to the dish. The presentation was impeccable, as the video expertly demonstrated the art of plating a Nicoise salad. The careful arrangement of each component demonstrated both skill and creativity. I found myself inspired to recreate this masterpiece in my own kitchen. Moreover, the video was not only visually appealing but also informative. The step-by-step instructions, accompanied by helpful tips and tricks, made it easy to follow along and understand the process of preparing this exquisite salad. It was evident that a lot of care and attention went into creating this video, making it a true pleasure to watch. Overall, this video beautifully captured the essence of a Nicoise salad, showcasing its fresh ingredients, harmonious flavors, and elegant presentation. It left me feeling inspired and eager to savor the delightful combination of textures and tastes in this classic French dish. Well done!

You are one of my fave chef. I love that most of your recipes use simple ingredients, and affordable too while still tasting yummy. Compared to some other youtubers that add ton of complicated expensive ingredients you are way more relatable. Thank you❤

[@doveandolive1153]

Beautiful looking salad! Simple ingredients with a punch of fresh flavored ingredients all which are easy to obtain. Hands down your method of cooking eggs is 100% fool proof and yours look so much more appealing than any other salad I've ever seen! Castelvetrano olives are the best they are so buttery, great to add this selection to any mezze plate one of my favorite olives.❤

[@Downshiftology]

Glad my boiled eggs recipe has been foolproof! 😊

[@jennacrystalblue2244]

I am fortunate to have had parents who, while THEY weren't that adventurous food wise, had many international friends. (And this was the golden era where you ate what was put in front of you, as a kid.) So I had an amazing palate for my age. Nicoise salad was a frequent treat. Anchovies and all! ❤

[@lopella]

I love this recipe and how everyone can tweak it according to their likes/dislikes. I would definitely include white beans cooked with rosemary because I love them. Thank you for sharing!

[@garlicgirl3149]

I used to make this salad all the time years ago. When I saw your video title I prepped last night for dinner today!

[@Downshiftology]

Hope you loved it!

[@darcyferrigno]

I haven't had a Nicosie salad in awhile and forgot home much I enjoy them. Now that it is so hot where I live, I am always searching for salads but with some heartiness to them. This should fit the bill for sure.

[@Downshiftology]

Glad this came as a good reminder! Hope you enjoy this summer 😊

[@lorig3934]

I was able to spend two weeks in the south of France with my daughter this past April. My first visit and just loved it. Thank you for the recipe.

[@Downshiftology]

Such a beautiful place! Hope you and your daughter enjoyed your time there, and now can recreate this delicious salad at home!

[@nenew1666]

I made this salad just yesterday….I am in love! I had heard about Niçoise salad but I had never had it. I will be making your version often ❤😊

Hi Lisa. When I was looking for the ingredients of the recipes on your website for both crab salad and pannacota I discovered this one. I don't know why I haven't watched the video. Guess what? I have almost all the ingredients so this salad is for today! Greetings from Spain 🤗

Yes! There are so many ways to make a Nicoise salad, and capers or salmon are great additions/substitutions.

I like salade niçoise with grilled fresh tuna and several salty anchovies. It’s a really flavoursome dish. Lucky you to have spent some time on the Côte d’Azur! Did you get to try pissaladière (a type of French pizza with fried onions, anchovies, olives and tomatoes? It’s delish too 😋)

[@Downshiftology]

Unfortunately, I can't have pizza as I'm gluten-free. But, that does sound so delicious!

You certainly have this salad nailed. I wonder what you learned about the name for this salad - is the proper name Salad Niçoise or Niçoise Salad? I enjoy your channel and often refer to it for some great ideas and inspiration which I greatly need from time to time.

[@eijaananda9698]

Can’t wait to try it❤

[@robertlee4172]

Definitely a very healthy salad. Tho I'm not so big on salads. I boil kale and collards until they have a slight toothy chew. Then eat it cold. Kinda like a salad.

I will try this salad.

[@FR-tb7xh]

Lovely video! One note if I may - please curl your fingertips under when holding food and using a knife in the other hand to slice or dice. Let your knuckles guide the side of the blade. This prevents accidents, too.

[@livingforduskhomeschool]

Hi, this looks beautiful and delicious! I’m wondering could you substitute the tuna with canned Salmon or Chicken?

[@Downshiftology]

Yes! You can use either, but canned salmon will work best for a more classic Nicoise salad 😊

[@amandahagen1907]

If you were to meal prep this, would you recommend storing the components separately or together? And wait to put dressing until eating?

Potatoes have to be started in cold water (as all underground vegetables). If not, they could cook unevenly or be mealy.

[@mgellerster]

I just made my own Nicoise salad. I seared fresh yellow fin but skipped on the potatoes which are just too filling for me.
