[edit] Poor Choice
Being someone who's studied cooking directly and indirectly with Guide Michelin chefs I find this page strange to say the least. Neither the picture, nor the description, nor the actual recipe cited have much to do with 'Salade Niçoise'. And for goodness sake it is not 'Niçoise salad' - it is and always will be only 'Salade Niçoise'.
A major rewrite is therefore in order.
[edit] Pronunciation
This needs one of those IPA pronunciation guides. I've removed the line "Proper pronunciation is nee - swahz" because there's a proper way to describe the pronunciation and that's not it. Anyone know how to do it? James A. Stewart 01:50, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Salade Nicoise ingredients
I am French,and I live in Nice,so I can assure you the ingredients listed in this article are not the actual ones!! Salade nicoise DOES NOT contain green beans,potatoes nor any other "cooked" vegetables.
If you want to make a REAL salade nicoise,you must use these (and only these) ingredients: tomatoes - cucumbers - artichokes - green peppers - onions - basil - garlic - hard boiled eggs - anchovies - black olives (olive oil,salt and pepper of course)
Here is a link to the salade nicoise recipe[1] and to the french wikipedia article [2]. It's in french but easy to understand with a simple dictionnary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.193.115.201 (talk) 15:18, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
