Just a question: what do you use to get your veggies so wonderfully julienned? It looks beautiful as well as being healthy.
olgak7
I actually cut it by hand. I’ve had so much practice over the years and I actually enjoy chopping. It’s so peaceful, lol. You can also use a mandolin.

is there celery in it?

Anita
Do you shred the cabbage by hand? What is your technique ?
olgak7
Yes, you can shred the cabbage by hand, with a knife, or you can use a mandolin, Anita. Here’s the mandolin that I like, it’s inexpensive and works great. I personally prefer using a knife, though.
Susan
This recipe has become a staple in our house. I panicked last week not finding cabbage in the grocery store because of panic buying due to the Corona virus. Third store had lots of cabbage! Thanks for the recipe.

I’m so glad you enjoyed the salad, Susan. The great thing about this salad is that you can use many different varieties of vegetables in addition to the cabbage, depending on what you have available. Thank you for taking the time to write.

Looks delicious! Can you make it ahead and would it stay crunchy?
olgak7
Yes, this salad does really well made in advance.
