Recipe Story

The most popular way to prepare cabbage is raw in a slaw. This quick and colorful version is tops on my charts for a refreshing side anytime that fresh red or green cabbage is available—which is most of the year. For eco-flair, serve it in bowls made from the remaining cabbage halves. Use extra cabbage in sandwiches, too.

Ingredients

 Apple cider vinegar1/3 Cup (16 tbs)
 1/4 cup mild floral honey
 Stone ground mustard1 Tablespoon
 Sea salt1 Teaspoon
 Ground black pepper1/2 Teaspoon
 Peanut oil1/4 Cup (16 tbs)
 1/2 medium green cabbage, very thinly sliced
 1/2 medium red or purple cabbage, very thinly sliced
 1 large white onion, very thinly sliced

Directions

1. Whisk together the vinegar, honey, mustard, salt, and pepper in a large serving bowl. Whisk in the oil.
2. Add the cabbages and onion and toss with the apple cider vinaigrette. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Gently toss and serve.
