  • Niçoise salad: this is the typical salad of Nice and the Côte d’Azur: this french recipe includes a lettuce or mixed salad base with hard-boiled eggs, cherry tomatoes, anchovy fillets and tuna in oil, black olives and strips of yellow or green peppers. As a condiment, we recommend a simple vinaigrette with oil, Balsamic Vinegar, salt and pepper.
  • Lyonnaise salad, originary from Lyon. The preparation is slightly more complex: among the ingredients, in addition to lettuce, curly salad and radicchio there are in fact croutons, browned pancetta and above all a poached egg. You can add a few parsley leaves to enhance the freshness and Balsamic Vinegar to add a sweeter touch.
  • Alsatian salad from Alsace is more substantial. The basic ingredients are boiled potatoes and cervelas, stubby and spicy sausages with beef and pork. To complete the salad, add diced cheese, shallots and chives. Finally oil, salt, Balsamic Vinegar and a teaspoon of mustard are needed to season.
  • Finally, the parisienne salad which is perfect for getting closer to the flavors of autumn: among the ingredients there are in fact champignons mushrooms. Additionally, the parisienne contains diced Emmental, boiled eggs, strips of cured ham and a few leaves of lettuce. The typical dressing is the vinaigrette, possibly with the addition of mustard.
