Method

For the crab, stir together shallot, hot sauce, mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice and chives in a medium bowl.


Add crabmeat and lightly toss.


Season with salt and pepper.


Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.


Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together mustard, shallot, vinegar, chives and lemon juice.


Slowly whisk in olive oil until dressing slightly thickens.


Set dressing aside.


Prepare a steamer and steam potatoes until tender when pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes.


While potatoes are still warm, toss with about 1 tablespoon of the prepared dressing.


Add haricot vert to steamer and cook until tender, about 4 minutes.


Transfer to an ice water bath to stop the cooking.


Drain thoroughly.


In a large bowl, combine haricots verts with watercress, endive, radish and celeriac.


Toss with about 2 tablespoon of dressing.


To serve, arrange greens on a platter or individual plates.


Top with crab and eggs.


Garnish with chives and serve immediately.
