Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make white cabbage salad? Prepare the ingredients for its preparation. Choose late varieties of cabbage, it is sweeter and juicier. A sour apple, like Antonovka, is better suited. Onion — purple sweet. Instead of parsley, you can take any greens; it will be delicious with leaf celery. Any vegetable oil will do, I used extra virgin olive oil.

Step 2

Step 2
Remove the top leaves of the cabbage and cut off the required amount. Chop the cabbage as finely as possible into thin strips. You can use a special grater or shredding knife; I used the old fashioned way to shred it with a simple knife.

Place cabbage in a large bowl and add salt. Lightly crush it with your hands and leave for 5-10 minutes so that the cabbage releases its juice.
