Classic Salade Niçoise

Although it has many versions, the classic salad of Nice, France, typically includes haricots verts—slender, young green beans—along with boiled potatoes, hard-cooked eggs and lettuce. The most authentic version calls for canned olive oil-packed tuna, rather than fresh or water-packed tuna, and niçoise olives.
