Niçoise Pasta Salad
Cooking time: 30 minutes for menu Cooking schedule: see below for instructions
A traditional French Salade with a modern twist: pasta. Best if consumed with a glass of Rosé, sitting on a terrace, gazing at the Mediterranean. If that's not possible, eat on your own terrace, as we do... Use the rest of the pepper on Thursday.
Total time: 25 minutes
Traditionally (besides being served on lettuce) this should have the small, black Niçoise olives but I use the dry-cured Greek - because I didn't want to bother pitting the small ones. Get the best canned tuna you can find. Salade Niçoise always uses canned, never fresh. The pasta takes the place of the potatoes.
