Nicoise salad is a classic dish from Provence, France, that has become a staple of French bistros. Although many popular versions of this salad include potatoes, they are not part of the traditional composition. Nicoise salad was likely introduced to America by French immigrants, where it remains a popular dish in French American homes and restaurants.
