Some recipes for this salad call for sautéing the onions in the bacon fat, but we prefer them left raw.

INGREDIENTS

6-8 medium waxy potatoes
Salt
12 thick slices bacon
1 large yellow onion, peeled and thinly sliced
6 tbsp. white wine vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley leaves
 

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Put potatoes into a large pot, cover with cold water by 2"to 3", and add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce heat to medium, and gently boil until potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, 15–20 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 10–15 minutes. Drain on paper towels, setting skillet with rendered fat aside. Crumble bacon into large pieces.

3. Drain potatoes, peel while still hot, and cut into 1" cubes. Put potatoes into a large warm serving bowl and add bacon and onions. Return skillet with bacon fat to medium-high heat and heat until hot. Carefully add vinegar and salt and pepper to taste. Pour hot dressing over potato mixture and toss well. Adjust seasonings. Garnish with parsley. Serve warm.

I made this "Warm Salmon Salad Niçoise" version of a traditional Niçoise (usually made with cold tuna) a couple weeks ago on a whim. I didn't have olives on hand, hence the capers doing a pretty good stand-in job in the dressing. The asparagus happened to look a lot better than the green beans at the market that week. And we ran out of our latest stash of canned tuna, but we did have a really beautiful salmon fillet in the fridge.
