Steps:
- In a large saucepan, cover potatoes with 2 inches salted water. Bring to a simmer and cook until potatoes are just tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain thoroughly.

Transfer to a serving dish and keep warm.

FRENCH POTATO AND GREEN BEAN SALAD
If this sounds like a pared-down salade niçoise, it is. Make a bold vinaigrette that is unapologetically fragrant with garlic and anchovy. Boil medium-size potatoes in their skins. Peel, slice and dress them while they are still slightly warm. You can even do the work in advance and then assemble it all just before serving. Authentic, traditional or somewhere in between, maybe we'll just call this a potato salad with a southern French accent and let it go at that.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes, bay leaf and thyme branch. Cook at a brisk simmer until the potatoes are firm but easily pierced with a skewer, about 30 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
- While the potatoes are cooking, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, stir together the garlic, anchovy, capers, mustard and vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Whisk again before using if the dressing separates.
- When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, remove the skins with a paring knife and carefully cut into pieces 1/4-inch thick, or slightly thicker. Put the slices in a low bowl, season lightly with salt and pepper and add half the vinaigrette. Using your hands, gently coat the potatoes with the vinaigrette, taking care not to break them. Cover and set aside at room temperature.
- Top and tail the beans. Simmer in salted water until firm-tender, about 3 to 4 minutes, then cool under running water and pat dry.
- To cook the eggs, bring a medium pot of water to a rapid boil. Add the eggs and cook for 8 minutes for a somewhat soft-centered yolk or 9 minutes for a firmer yolk. Cool the eggs immediately in ice water, then crack and peel. Cut each egg in half and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- When ready to serve, season the beans with salt and pepper, then dress with the remaining vinaigrette. (Reserve 2 tablespoons vinaigrette for the arugula, if using.)
- Combine the dressed beans and potatoes, using hands to toss, and pile onto a platter. Sprinkle with chives, parsley and basil and arrange the eggs over the top. Garnish with anchovy fillets, if desired. Dress the arugula and send it to the table separately.

Steps:
- Cook potatoes in water to cover for 10 to 20 minutes, depending on their size, until they are tender but firm; drain, and cut in quarters or halves, again depending on size. Meanwhile, steam the green beans 5 to 7 minutes, depending on their thickness; drain, and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. Cut in quarters or thirds, depending on size.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, lemon juice and mustard; stir in the thyme and onion. When potatoes are cooked, stir them into the dressing. If the salad is not to be served immediately, do not add the green beans: the acid of the dressing will turn them gray. Cover the beans well, cover the dressed potatoes and refrigerate separately.
- To serve, let the vegetables return to room temperature. Stir the green beans into the potatoes and dressing, and season with salt and pepper.
