SIMPLE PROCESS

Step by step recipe

The key is finely shredded cabbage and evenly sliced pepper and radish. Cabbage should be cut as thin as possible to make it tender and absorb the dressing well. Dress just before serving to keep the vegetables crisp.

Step 1

Shred the Cabbage

Shred the cabbage finely. If it's tough, gently massage it with your hands to soften.

Step 2

Slice Pepper and Radish

Cut the bell pepper into thin strips and slice the radish into thin rounds or half-moons.

Step 3

Combine Ingredients

In a large salad bowl, mix the cabbage, pepper, and radish. Season with salt to taste.

Step 4

Make the Dressing

Whisk together the olive oil and vinegar in a small bowl or directly in the salad bowl.

Step 5

Dress and Serve

Add the dressing just before serving, toss gently, and serve immediately. Enjoy!

CHEF'S TIP

Shred Cabbage Thinly

Thin shreds make the salad more delicate and help the dressing penetrate evenly.

Use Colorful Bell Pepper

Red, yellow, or orange pepper adds vibrant color and makes the salad more appetizing.

Dress Just Before Serving

If dressed too early, the cabbage releases water and loses its crunch. Add dressing right before serving.

Add Fresh Herbs

Fresh dill, parsley, or spring onion will add freshness and extra aroma.

SUBSTITUTIONS

Add your taste

With Lemon Juice Replace vinegar with freshly squeezed lemon juice for a softer, fresher dressing.
With Mayonnaise Use mayonnaise instead of oil and vinegar for a richer, more filling salad.
With Carrot Add grated carrot (50g) for extra sweetness and color.
With Apple Add a julienned tart-sweet apple for a refreshing fruity note.

HOW TO STORE

How to Store Vitamin Salad

Best eaten fresh, right after preparation. If leftovers remain, store in the fridge in a covered container without dressing for up to 1 day. Dressed salad will lose its crunch within a few hours. Do not freeze.
