I made this a long time ago in French class in high school! We even had anchovy filets to mash into the dressing. It's fantastic. Now I want to make it again ^^
I love vingertte dressing. My grandma makes one with apple cider vinger, extra verging olive oil, sugar, garlic and some chopped onions. You put it all in a jar and shake then pour over whatever you like. So good!
Sounds very similar to the dressing we use for "Ramen Noodle Salad" which is apple cider vinegar, sugar, vegetable/neutral oil and the seasoning packet from ramen noodles. You put it on coleslaw mix with chopped green onions, peanuts or cashews, top with the crushed raw noodles and maybe some diced rep bell pepper or Mandarin orange slices if you have them on hand. Traditionally you used "Oriental flavor" but I believe they just call it soy flavor now.
Oh my goodness, you've got such beautiful tomatoes there! Clicked because we serve this salad at my work! :D we use butter lettuce instead, thinly sliced radishes instead of olives, seared tuna instead of canned, and a tarragon dressing, finished with fresh picked herbs sprinkled ontop (Parsley, tarragon, chives, and chervyl) 💕 Ps: I love your top, it's so cute c:
The radishes instead of olives might be a little blasphemous to a strict traditionalist, but the seared tuna and tarragon vinaigrette sounds AWESOME... Just curious, where do you work? Salad Nicoise is not very popular in my neck of the woods (northern Nevada), so I'm wondering if it's more popular elsewhere.
@@giuseppelogiurato5718 :) A French restaurant in California. I imagine we use radishes because we use it for the house salad as well. The tarragon dressing is delicious! We use it for a goat cheese salad too c:
@@Cryptovsblisk oh! Hello neighbor 😁! I am actually more picky about olives than radishes; I like radishes on everything, but I'm a big "snob" when it comes to olives, so I would not complain if I got radishes instead of olives, as long as everything else is good quality. Hope you're not in any danger from fires, and I'm glad your restaurant managed to survive the lockdown... Best of luck to ya! ❤️
Might sound weird to y’all Americans, but canned tuna is a whole thing in France. They make really excellent ones. But I can see how fresh seared tuna can add a great twist to the dish, that’s the kind of « revisité » I like to see ☺️ (french word that describes when you slightly change a recipe to add something to it but keep the essence) also curious about the tarragon dressing but again I can see how it would work with the fresh fish!
The first time I ever ate salade nicoise was almost 40 years ago, when I was a very young man. It was my first-ever visit to a French restaurant, and I’ve never forgotten it. I’ve only ever seen nicoise as a composed salad, but if you want to toss it, I guess there’s no law against it (except maybe in France). Bon appetit!
Finally a perfect jammy egg! Thank you! We made this salad for dinner last night and loved it. The tuna tossed into the greens with the dressing is brilliant. Voting Yes on a Emmy's Fave's playlist!
I love using jars for mixing salad dressing! I also use glass jars for storing leftover (home made) soup. So many uses, but because of limited cabinet space I have to limit how many jars I can keep
Me too! Jar for mixing flour and water for gravy (learned that one from my Grammy), salad dressing, ice coffee (the best!), etc. I try to keep at least 3 size varieties, but when I come across a really unusual, antique Mason jar, it's really hard not to give in and buy it!
This is one of my favorite salads. When we're really hungry we add a bit more potato and tuna, and then just omit the lettuce and have it as a hearty thing for dinner. I usually make a homemade honey mustard vinaigrette for mine. My mom however just loves using the bottled Olive Garden dressing on hers, or a raspberry vinaigrette.
I actually really like Primal Kitchen. Their avocado ranch is amazing. It's definitely ranch, just with a slight avocado taste and is so much better than dairy based ranch.
That sigh… that’s when you know it’s a good bite! I worked at a restaurant years ago that served the same salad with a bit of a twist but, it was my favorite salad ever. I went in on my day off to eat it on many occasions. Thank you for reminding me of it… perhaps I’ll give recreating it a go.
That's my favorite salad too, and your interpretation looks yummy. The face you made when tasting it, is the one I make each time I have it - disbelief that something could taste so good!
Oh, yum! This is our #1 favorite salad, too. We eat it year ‘round, but this time of year it is at the peak of flavor. We don’t have our own hens, so I’m jealous. We add some capers, too, but it is otherwise identical to yours. Sometimes, there is fresh focaccia to go with it.
potatoes in salad? your mother is a genius!!! i Need to try this sometime, i love all of the ingredients so much and imagine they would be heavenly together 🤌🏻
My friends and I always joke about this salad whenever we see it on a menu bc of the scene from white chicks! Lol I never actually knew what was in it until today 😅 thanks Emmy, it looks delicious (besides the olives)
I'm from Nice, France! Actually, we tend to eat it all summer long, from th end of may to september, but because not all ingredients are available at the same time of the year the salad varies depending on the month even though it should have everything at once ideally, and elders used to say about the niçoise: "When it's the right time and you have an ingredient, you're losing another, they're never at the right time together". The base is always the same though, lettuce, tuna, anchovies and tomatoes, and some rice and depending on the time, bell peppers, artichoke, beans but not haricots verts like Emmy used (what a disgrace! XD), black olives, sometimes corn. It's such a nostalgic dish for me, I used to eat it a lot when I was a kid, usually in big gatherings with the family and a lot of neighboring families too, it reminds me of all the stories the elders would tell during those meals. Thanks for the memories Emmy!
I love doing my salad dressings with homemade fruit vinegars. It really allows you to marry flavours with what's in the salad for just that extra bit of umph.
Very interesting! So different than the salads I had years ago living in France. It's almost like a game of telephone, all I recognize is the canned tuna and potatoes!
Emmy you are so beautiful! I think I thousandth the vote to do a series of your favorites. I love this salad and the dressing is yummy. I haven’t tried Primal Kitchen, but no sugar is on my list because I’m avoiding sugar as much as I can. Thank you again for a great show!👍👍👍👍👍
Love this video on salad . I am a salad lover . Love the combination and need to try it . Also love Primal kitchen dressing and have a few . Love watching you .
We are at the start of spring, great weather for salads, I really love balsamic vinegar, never thought of putting boiled potatoes in a green salad, and I like tuna in spring water 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘🦘🦘
More salads should feature green beans! I love making nicoise and riffs on nicoise! Caesar inspired with anchovies in the dressing, crispy roasted potatoes and shavings of parm! Or a BBQ inspired adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the dressing and using smoked trout instead of tuna! Such a great base for amazingness!
Thank you for reminding me about this delicious salad!! I'd forgotten about it. Haven't had it in years! Definitely going to add this to one of my dinners this week! Love your content!!💕
This is gonna sound crazy, but I wonder if a big pinch of bonito flakes or chunks of smoked salmon would be even better than the tuna? Certainly not cheaper, but the smoky umami can't be beat! 🤩
Looks great! I really enjoy a salad I was introduced to....called the Courtyard salad!! Mixed greens, red onion, roasted corn, warmed shaved beef, lil crumbled bacon, diced fresh dates, walnuts, and feta mixed with a sour cream/yogurt, dill, and lemon dressing! so filling!
My favourite too❤️ and you’ve created a beautiful salad but did you just dislike the two key ingredients anchovies and raw union or have you never tried it; if so-give it a try next time, it gives the salad the five⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ taste and are so delicious in the summer ✌🏽😘
I got the boiled potatoes in the salad thing from my grandmother .so many times I will boil potatoes , pour some Garlic Expression dressing on them and let them sit in the fridge . It’s delicious !
You did a great job! I like your Nicoise! pro tip, if you sear a tuna steak and add some potato confit and green beans it really makes it wholesome and filling and just gives that full meal vibe.
Wow, even though I've never been a big fan of salad niçoise, I actually find yours quite tempting! Was never a huge olive person, but recently decided I liked Castelvetrano olives, maybe will try with those. 😊
I think you should do a whole "Emmy's Favorites" series.
YES!!!
I second that
Yes please!!!
Agreed!!
agreed
I made this a long time ago in French class in high school! We even had anchovy filets to mash into the dressing. It's fantastic. Now I want to make it again ^^
Clearly, a memorable activity to do in French class. 😋 🥗
The anchovies are a must !
Absolutely! I can’t have a salad Nicoise without the anchovy!! I even finely chop them and sprinkle over the whole salad. I also like to add radishes.
@Saner 3699 , she was born in the good ole USA. She is in her country. I'm embarrassed for you
I remember thinking it sounded gross in high school French (still kinda do) but Emmy's version looked delicious.
I love vingertte dressing. My grandma makes one with apple cider vinger, extra verging olive oil, sugar, garlic and some chopped onions. You put it all in a jar and shake then pour over whatever you like. So good!
Oh and adding a blended avocado is also delicious
Mmm...
@@lilblacklamb222 MMM, blended avocado sounds sooo yummy!

Oooh, my mom would love this salad! It might also convert me into a salad-eater! Thanks, Emmy! "Eggs are the perfect food!"
My pleasure! I hope you like it.
Finally a perfect jammy egg! Thank you! We made this salad for dinner last night and loved it. The tuna tossed into the greens with the dressing is brilliant. Voting Yes on a Emmy's Fave's playlist!
Love Primal Kitchen dressings. No sugar. Sprouts now has their own brand to compete. No seed oils, no sugar. Cheaper and bigger bottle.
Omg I need these
Eggs are the perfect food. I love tuna nicoise. I'm glad to know nicoise is your favorite salad. Have a great day Emmy!
Your channel always has a safe vibe. I always watch your videos when I feel sad💕
Her voice and character is so calming 🤍🥺

I have never heard of this salad before. It looks and sounds delicious. I need to try it asap!! Thanks for sharing!!
A huge yes to everything but the olives. I love salads in general and this one looks super yummy!
Glad i’m not the only one who’d leave out the olives
Perfect Hard Boiled Egg, that is a beautiful sight. Great job Emmy!
One of my favorites too!! Fresh summer salads!
My sister makes me this salad when I visit her, I never remember the name so I just say “I would like you to make the fancy salad on my visit!”
😆 Perfect!
This woman is so pure
I actually really like Primal Kitchen. Their avocado ranch is amazing. It's definitely ranch, just with a slight avocado taste and is so much better than dairy based ranch.
Your plating is far more appealing than I’ve ever seen.
Hello 👋 how are you doing

A Monday video?? What a treat!!
That's my favorite salad too, and your interpretation looks yummy. The face you made when tasting it, is the one I make each time I have it - disbelief that something could taste so good!
I’ve now made your recipe for this multiple times, and it is delicious! Everyone loves it! Thanks for sharing 🙏
Oh, yum! This is our #1 favorite salad, too. We eat it year ‘round, but this time of year it is at the peak of flavor. We don’t have our own hens, so I’m jealous. We add some capers, too, but it is otherwise identical to yours. Sometimes, there is fresh focaccia to go with it.
Looks scrumptious and appetizing!
Plus easy to make with ingredients we have on hand! Thank you!
it look so yummy with those veggies, it worth trying
Definitely worth trying. 🥗
Thanks for the tip about the garlic.😊 I had a hell of a time peeling some the other day.
potatoes in salad? your mother is a genius!!! i Need to try this sometime, i love all of the ingredients so much and imagine they would be heavenly together 🤌🏻
Another day, another great upload from you 😊

Salad is beautiful, healthy and delicious. Can not do better than that. Thanks for the video.
I’d love to see Emmy doing an “Emmys garden” series 💖💗💕
I make this all the time, but I love to throw a bunch of asparagus on top.
Hello 👋 how are you doing
@@jamesjames5484 , Hi Jimmy.
I’m sorry, what is this GORGEOUS INTRO MUSIC for Emmy’s Favourites?!?!
Thank You! I am inspired to make it. Love this channel for it's wholesome and positive vibes. 😄

You are right this is the best salad ever!! Have you tried an alternative with dried tomatoes and pickled onions?? It's pure happiness in a plate!

Or a BBQ inspired adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the dressing and using smoked trout instead of tuna! Such a great base for amazingness!
I love your take on this salad is great. This is one of my favorite salads as well.
Wow salad looks delicious. Got to try that. Yum.😊👍❤️✌️
So excited. Love these videos
This salad is so pretty!
Absolutely delicious Emmy. Unfortunately, I could not get your recipe to come up. Other recipes came up but not this one.
@Charlie Wayne Thomas sure, what is it?
I don’t mind but I do not believe my email address will go through.
That salad looked delicious and so easy to put together. Thanks for the share.

Ooh, delicious! I’ll have to try it, maybe with some extra eggs.
Eggs are the perfect food, after all 😄
This is my favorite salad too! I used to make it all the time but it strikes people as old-fashioned.
My father loves this salad - its always so beautiful with all the ingredients.
Please do a series on your favorite recipes! That would be fantastic
Looks real good
You did a great job! I like your Nicoise! pro tip, if you sear a tuna steak and add some potato confit and green beans it really makes it wholesome and filling and just gives that full meal vibe.
Salad Niçoise is my Fave too! yay!
Yum (though I might skip the green beans 😋), Emmy...that looks good!
Liked and subbed... 😊
Yummy!! I love salads with all the works. never thought to add potatoes 🤤
My mouth watered, no joke. This looks soooooooo good.
Favorite salad!!! Don´t forget a nice Rose wine to go along with it!
My favorite too!
Talking about the tuna breaking up as you mixed the salad, I had a flashback to the tuna jell-o. The salad looks good, though!
Yum!!! My sister makes a potato salad which has a garlic lemon dressing and is served on greens with red onion and bacon bits … very yummy 🤤
Thanks for the recipe Emmy, Love this salad now i can make it at home I thought it was harder to make. Thanks for all your videos. 😃
Can't wait to see that Emmy's Favorites series 🙌🏽
Salad Nicoise is my favorite salad too!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
Wow, this looks delicious!! 🥗
Wow, even though I've never been a big fan of salad niçoise, I actually find yours quite tempting! Was never a huge olive person, but recently decided I liked Castelvetrano olives, maybe will try with those. 😊
They are the BEST!
Emmy always reminds me of my mother. 🤗
I like watching how Julia Child prepared this salad. Both in the "French Chef" and "The Way to Cook". She has amazing recipes in the 2nd one.
She's such an inspiration. ✨
Hi Emmy I absolutely love this salad. I remember seeing Salad Nicoise on Julia Child and was Instantly hooked.
Ah, composed salad - that's what it's called! I make that because in my family, different people dislike different parts of it... 🤣🤣
Thanks for the healthy salad recipe!!!
Beautiful dish!
I use primal kitchen everything! I love the green goddess dressing!
looks so good, I didn't realize how yummy Salad Nicoise was. I'll definitely try it soon!
Please do a emmys favorite series it would be amazing
Never had such a salad before. Looks amazing!
This looks delicious and I'm definitely going to try it.
Hello 👋 how are you doing
Yay! My first time getting in that first thumbs up! Thanks for the upload, Emmy!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
I made this salad today! It really IS wonderful!
Gorgeous salad😋 I'm drooling
Thank you!
I’ve never seen such a beautiful hard boiled egg 🤤
Love this salad as well 🤠
In Paris, at a street cafe, near the University, I had the best Salad Nicoise! So simple and delicious.
