Lobster, Shrimp & Scallop Salad Niçoise

The well known Nicoise Salad, or Salade Niçoise in French; is a delicious, refreshing and traditional salad from France in which fresh market produce are complimented by typical Provencal seasonings. Too often however the version you find on menus is prepared with canned tuna which is not my favorite. I do have a few recipes in which I utilize canned tuna but never in this salad. My version using more delicate fresh shellfish is heavenly. I use two of my artSAVOR blends to add layers of savory deliciousness. I had great fun creating the elevated seafood marinade with artSAVOR 75 and the vinaigrette for the vegetables with artSAVOR 30. Plating this ahead of time and covering in the refrigerator, makes last minute service incredibly easy. Served right from the refrigerator at room temperature made my duties light and contributed to a more spontaneous and easy summer night dining al fresco.
