That is so different to the salade Niçoise I have made for years (with tuna, tomato and green beans plus anchovy in the dressing). The trouble is I have become a vegetarian (I know, this probably breaks your chef's heart). I have never liked the fat on bacon the way you serve it here - I could only ever eat bacon if the fat was cooked away completely. The eggs look beautifully cooked, but alas, I do not eat these any more. But, the dressing looks good and the garlic croutons look delicious. So I will have to think about using walnuts instead of bacon, edamame beans for the protein, or puy lentils.... I will work on this. My old version of Niçoise was my favourite salad of all salad.

I had this same salad in Paris, it was So good! Instead of soft boiled eggs, two fried eggs, Sunny side up on top of the salad. It was served at dinner and it had a nice cut of ham, also fried as the first item on a large white bistro plate. Plus, it had Lardons all through the frisee salad. Typical cubed bread croutons with garlic butter. And chopped parsley sprinkled over the plate with a seasoning of Salt and Black Pepper over it all! I was tired from a long day out. All the menu items had a name and l looked for a name l liked and pointed to Sebastian. What a wonderful thing to have for Dinner! Of course, we started with Escargot! Sidewalk meals in Paris are the Best!😋😋😋♥️

Thanks for the quick tutorial on the care of carbon steel pans. Like Escoffier’s classic preparations, carbon steel and cast iron, for that matter, have been culinary stalwarts in home and professional kitchens for decades. Like many good things in life they require some love and attention on a regular basis. The unprotected surface of carbon steel and case iron interacts with air and water and creates the orange-red rust powder that we all know so well. “Seasoning” these metals with fats (oil, butter, grease) permits the fat to penetrate the microscopic pores in the metal and seals it from the constant corrosive attacks of air and water. The combination of heat, metal and air oxides the fatty acid chains found in fats and encourages them to bond with one another. This process is called polymerization. As a result of polymerization, a dense hard dry layer is formed on the metal surfaces of the steel or iron providing a protective layer to inhibit rusting that just happens to be nonstick as well. Highly unsaturated oils such as soy oil and corn oil are particularly prone to oxidation and polymerization and are often used for initial seasoning. Other fats work well also, but just require a little more time. A well-seasoned and maintained pan is a wonderful tool for the cook and is the sign of a true culinary craftsman.
The oil isn't penetrating the pores to protect it, it's the burning of oil on the surface that creates a bonding between the lipid and the metal that both protect it form rust and create a less sticky surface.
I bought a carbon steel pan exactly like Stephan's from D. Dehillerin back in the early '70's in Paris. At that time, D. Dehillerin was located in a nondescript basement and not frequented by tourists. I've used this marvelous pan for fifty years. Along with my husband, a native of Lyon, it's my favorite thing from France!
A top tip for seasoning. After you've washed the pan to remove that protective layer it comes with and dried it completely. Heat the pan a bit on the stove and apply a very thin layer of oil with a high smoke point (it's easier to get a thin layer when the pan is hot). Then whack it in a ~230 °C oven for 30 min - 1 hour, then let it cool down completely while still in the oven. Then repeat this like 8-10 times and you'll be well on your way to a wonderfully seasoned pan. I usually do this before going to bed and then let it cool over night in the oven. Oh and remember to check that the pan doesn't have any coating och plasticy bits on on the handle that might melt in the oven.
Fisklina and to clean, use a teaspoon of salt and a paper towel to scrub out any stuck on bits. Rinse with water, and put on the stove top on med heat fir 3-5 minutes to dry the pan.
A tip for those that will try to spread the oil in a iron cast pan, do it with a cloth instead of paper towel. Iron cast pans usually have rough surfaces, it will break the paper and leave unwanted residues in the pan, the steel pan in this video has a more polished surface so it isn't a problem for him.
That looked like an excellent lump of bacon. I am Scottish and have lived in France but now live in Scotland where it is impossible to find poitrine fumee - except for 3 slices saturated in brine and sealed in plastic sold online, the kind that steams in the liter of milky water that exudes from it rather than frying. I can find some acceptable dry cured sliced bacon here which I have to use, but, I miss La France! I like your channel Stephane and watch a lot of your videos, keep up the good work.
I have the same De Buyer pan and love it. It is very well seasoned now (totally black) and I use it for SO many things from sautéing to omelettes, etc. I also have a carbon steel crêpe pan which I can use for more than just crêpes. I’ve tried various oils for seasoning the pan and settled on grape seed oil. 👍
It doesn’t take many minutes to properly season a carbon steel pan, just some technique. Very thin layer of oil, whipe with paper towel, put on heat and wait for smoke. Remove pan and repeat procedure until it’s all black. Then finally add a thin layer of oil and it’s done.
As a fellow De Buyer owner, I can attest it's the single best pan I've ever used. Keep using it, keep oiling it, and it'll get better and better. For hygiene, absolutely rinse it in boiling water, towel dry, then oil and put in a low heat oven for about 20 mins. That helps minimise rust.
Thank you for the info about the mineral b pan. I just bought the same pan. It's high maintenance, but I'm enjoying watching the seasoning grow into the pan and food cooks like a dream.
Once you season it with flax oil, the coating will be very dark like black coffee and very resistant to scratching. The key is to repeatedly heat to the smoke point and cool completely- six or seven cycles after the first seasoning. Then you will have a nice non stick surface. Do not use with acidic foods like tomatoes.

to anyone who's taking in consideration buying a pan that needs to be seasoned, like a wok: you should never wash it with anything but water. Dishwashing liquids remove the non-stick agent and you need to re-season it. I recommend buying one only if you plan to use it on a daily basis. Do you agree with that?
What kind of walnut oil is required? In the US there’s a French brand called la tourangelle that’s roasted walnut oil. There’s also a refined walnut oil that’s not roasted
I like how you put this salad together. The only thing I would do would be to rub the croutons with garlic while they are still warm it cooks the garlic so it’s not so sharp.
Another great video. Thank you for educating us on some wonderful techniques I have some minor corrections though. When talking about steel pans, it's best practice to specify what type of steel pan you're talking about. Stainless steel is very popular and some people may think you're talking about it when you really were talking about carbon steel. Carbon steel pans can be washed with soap! People in the old days didn't use soap because old soap was made of lye, a powerful chemical that will strip away all the pan's seasoning. Modern soaps are much more gentle and will not hurt your pan at all. After washing a carbon steel pan, it's best practice to coat it in a thin layer of oil to prevent rust, but realistically I never do this. As long as the pan is well seasoned and dry, it will not rust.
Hi, not washing the pan is actually a myth. You can wash it but you need to dry it immediately. Personally I dry it on the burner then wipe with a thin coat of oil.
Hi! Is this a traditional way to make plain croutons (outside of dishes)? What if I wanted to have a few big slices with some eggs or cheese or patee - would I use the same technique as in this video? The ones in the video seem too brown and too butter-infused for me. Thank you.
Many different models. The skillets are very versatile. They’re a good investment, that is for sure. I’ve collected some copper pans from Alsace (Baumalu) but still can’t figure them out: eggs stick no matter how much oil I use, LOL! NOTE: those Mineral B pans have an epoxied handle that will degrade with high heat, plus that silicon button can be problematic. De Buyer makes a steel pan more suited, without the epoxy coated handle and the silicon button: Carbone plus, I think.
A lovely and tasty salad to try at home as i am using a debuyer mineral b pan i had it in the video but must have edited out by mistake 😁
French Cooking Academy I purchased a non-stick deBuyer at Dehillerin in Paris. Next time I think I’ll get a steel one like yours.

Great entree or Salad as we say in England 🏴
Excellent video. Very good, simple explanation of seasoning
Reminds me of Frisée aux lardons, my favorite.

I am drooling here at work! It is a torture but yet exciting that I will go to the supermarket and buy what I need to make this today!
Best explanation of how to season carbon steel pans is Uncle Scott's kitchen pancast/podcast. Also reviews. Everything pans, basically.
Those croutons look PARFAIT!
Beautiful presentation,THANK YOU STEPHAN!

Fisklina For removing the protective coating I used boiling water. It was fast and worked perfectly
You shouldn’t put de Buyer pans in the oven. They have silicone handles. What you just described can be done on the stovetop
mshafer1021 Silicone is good up to 500F
mshafer1021 it can, however if you do it on the stovetop, then you cannot season the bottom of the pan.
I love hearing you say 'hop'! I lived in Lyon for a year and adore the salad lyonnaise
Just made this.....well almost. I made poached eggs and tossed a litlle parmasean on at the end. Delicious!
A tip for those that will try to spread the oil in a iron cast pan, do it with a cloth instead of paper towel. Iron cast pans usually have rough surfaces, it will break the paper and leave unwanted residues in the pan, the steel pan in this video has a more polished surface so it isn't a problem for him.

I feel like there was a “ fork don’t lie” moment in there.
I'd love to see a quenelle recipe
I cook my eggs in a steamer. It certainly works for hard boiled. Again start the timer when the water boils.
Faite et goûtée : franchement l'huile de noix domine trop en goût, la prochaine fois je ferai une vinaigrette plus classique.
Hi, not washing the pan is actually a myth. You can wash it but you need to dry it immediately. Personally I dry it on the burner then wipe with a thin coat of oil.

Would American bacon work if it is cut thick? Or too smoky?
Also, don’t forget you can take an all metal pan straight from the stove to a heated oven to finish cooking!
