Advice

Massage the cabbage with salt before adding the dressing, because it softens the texture and helps the salad become juicy without losing its crunch.

Why it works πŸ’‘

Cabbage gives crunch, carrot adds sweetness, vinegar and lemon cut through rich food, and a small amount of honey rounds the acidity without making the salad taste sweet.

Twist 🌢️

Add 120 g thinly sliced roasted red pepper (ΒΎ cup / 4.2 oz) for a more colorful tavern-style version with extra sweetness and Balkan character.
