Step by step recipe
Stage 1 - ⌛ 5 min.
Stage 2 - ⌛ 8 min.
Stage 3 - ⌛ 40 min.
Steam 800 g potatoes.
Stage 4 - ⌛ 5 min.
Chop 1 bunch parsley.
Stage 5 - ⌛ 5 min.
Peel the potatoes while still hot, slice and put in a salad bowl.
Stage 6 - ⌛ 5 min.
Add the parsley to the hot potatoes, add 5 tablespoons french dressing (vinaigrette), mix well and leave for 5 minutes.
Stage 7
It's important to do this because the hot potatoes will absorb some of the vinaigrette and parsley flavour, and so will became soft and tasty. Delicious!
Stage 8 - ⌛ 3 min.
Add the bacon and cabbage, add more vinaigrette if necessary and mix well.
Stage 9
Serve immediately. It's better if the potatoes are still warm when the salad is served.
Remarks
You might like to try adding a finely chopped shallot with the parsley, or pouring a little dry white wine over the potatoes while they are still hot.
If you don't like bacon, you can simply leave it out.

Bouquet garni
Used very frequently in French cuisine, a secret of French chefs, it adds flavour to a lot of recipes, and it's easy to prepare. The basic principle is to make a small bundle of herbs, bind them in green leek leaves and to tie it up, so that the whole thing can be removed and discarded easily after cooking.

French baguettes
This classic of French baking is rather different from the recipe for leavened bread, it's a question of making a good crust and light crumb along the whole length. To succeed, you should know that there are two secrets: water first of all (much more than for normal bread), and the working of the dough, which is also very different.
