- 1
Slice the cabbage into very thin slices.
💡 The most important thing is to slice it into really small parts.
- 2
In a separate container, mix the sunflower oil, sugar, vinegar, salt, and caraway seeds to create the dressing.
💡 Use a neutral oil like sunflower oil rather than olive oil to avoid a strong taste.
- 3
Pour the dressing over the sliced cabbage and mix well.
💡 The vinegar amount is higher than the oil to ensure a sweet and sour flavor.
- 4
Let the salad rest for at least a couple of hours, or even a day, to allow the aromas to develop.
💡 It gets better on the second day.
Tips
- Don't be too strict with the amounts; adjust to your personal preference.
- Caraway seeds provide a nice aroma and are good for digestion when eating heavy meals.
- Avoid using dark balsamic vinegar to prevent the cabbage from turning brown.
