Cook eggs 7 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to ice-water bath. Continue to cook potatoes until easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 3 minutes more. Drain and let cool slightly.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together mustard, lemon juice, and onion. Gradually whisk in oil. Fold in potatoes and salmon; transfer to a platter. Peel eggs; halve crosswise. Arrange on top of salad. Season eggs with salt and pepper; sprinkle with tarragon and serve.
