Cabbage salad, cafeteria recipe
Do you think this will be unremarkable? You have never been so wrong before. It will sound strange, but this salad is dressed with sauce. It also has broccoli.
What you will need:
- 1/2 cabbage;
- 1 sweet pepper;
- 1 carrot;
- 1 bunch of young onions;
- 50 grams of corn;
- 1 floret of broccoli.
For the sauce:
- 45 ml ml oil;
- 1 lemon;
- 3 grams of dried ground garlic;
- 1 collection of dill;
- 2 pinches of salt.
Assembling the salad:
- Squeeze the juice from the lemon.
- Wash the dill, cut off the greens and chop them.
- First of all, combine all the “wet” components of the sauce with each other: oil, lemon juice. Mix well until the color and texture are uniform.
- Add garlic and chopped herbs to the dressing. Add salt and mix well.
- Place the sauce in the refrigerator.
- Remove the top leaves from the cabbage. Finely chop the remaining part. You can even use a special grater.
- Wash and dry the bell pepper well. Cut it into cubes, removing the internal membranes and seeds.
- Open the corn and drain the liquid.
- Cut the stem off the broccoli, wash it, and then divide it into small florets.
- Collect white cabbage, sweet peppers, corn and broccoli in one salad bowl.
- Season the dish with sauce and stir.
Advice: how to choose the right broccoli so that it is ripe, but not yet overripe? Cabbage that has yellow color anywhere on it is already overripe. It is not recommended to buy such an inflorescence. The juiciest broccoli fruit is the one whose “tree” is a deep, rich, dark green color. It will be the most beneficial for your health. Broccoli that has a purple tint is good. All buds on the head should be dark green. If there are yellow ones among them, the product is overripe and is already beginning to deteriorate. The broccoli leg should be firm and tough.
Cabbage salad, like in the cafeteria
If you like something crunchy or just love nuts, you're on the right track. Consider this one was created especially for you. In addition to the usual and expected ingredients, be prepared for a spicy dressing.
What you will need:
- 400 g white cabbage;
- 200 g carrots;
- 80 ml mayonnaise;
- 2-3 cloves of garlic;
- 100 g nuts;
- 2-3 g ground black pepper.
Salad preparation:
- Remove the top leaves from the head of cabbage. Get rid of them. Finely chop the remaining part.
- Wash the carrots. Next, clean with a dish brush. Peel and grate a clean root vegetable.
- Peel the garlic and put it into the press.
- Add black pepper and chopped garlic to mayonnaise.
- Dry the nuts in a dry frying pan and then chop them with a knife.
- Combine cabbage, carrots and nuts.
- Season the salad with sauce half an hour before serving.
Tip: the salad will turn out a hundred times better if you add mayonnaise to it not from the store, but one that you prepare yourself. For this you will need butter (any kind except butter will do), whole eggs or their yolks, a little mustard and lemon or lime juice, sugar and salt. All components must be whisked together until smooth, without adding oil. It’s best to do this with an immersion blender, but if you don’t have one, you can also use a whisk. Beat the mixture until the color and texture are uniform. Then carefully and slowly pour in the oil, constantly whisking the future sauce. If you're happy with the thickness of the mixture, stop. It is the oil that thickens the sauce, so if you have enough, you don’t need to add more. Why can't you connect everything at once? It is possible that the sauce will separate due to the oil and consider that you have transferred all the ingredients. Therefore, it is better to spend a little more time, but prepare a good, high-quality and tasty dressing.

Cabbage salad with carrots and apple
If you order a fashionable appetizer “Cole Slow” (the name translates from English as “cabbage salad”) in a restaurant, you will most likely be served a simple and popular salad in our area made from fresh cabbage and carrots with the addition of an apple. It is simple to prepare, but literally charges you with vitamin energy.
For the salad we will prepare the following ingredients:
- 500 g white cabbage;
- 300 g carrots;
- 200 g sweet and sour apple (red varieties);
- yogurt and mayonnaise - 30 ml each;
- salt, pepper to taste.
Peel the apple and remove the stem and seeds. Cut cabbage, carrots, apple into thin strips and mix. Prepare the dressing - mix natural yogurt with mayonnaise, add some salt, and add a pinch of freshly ground black pepper. Dress the salad, cool and serve.
It seems that everything is elementary. But chefs have learned to change the taste of a dish beyond recognition. The famous chef Jamie Oliver always prepares it with the addition of red onion, parsley and always chops all the ingredients (except the onion) in a food processor. The straw turns out thin, which makes the taste of the salad richer. Lemon juice and English mustard add a piquant note to this dish. Petiole celery is also appropriate in the Cole Slaw variation, but this is definitely not for everybody.
“Bigos” (Bigus) with cabbage, potatoes and chicken, as in the Soviet soldiers’ canteen – video recipe
Bigos or popularly Bigus is a Polish, Lithuanian, Ukrainian or Belarusian traditional dish made from sauerkraut or salted cabbage. During the Soviet era, soldiers in the Soviet army were very often given this dish of sauerkraut.
Today there is no Soviet Union and housewives have learned to stew Bigus (Bigos) with meat and potatoes from fresh cabbage.
The advantage of this dish is that simple, ordinary products produce a very flavorful and interesting combination of meat.
Cooking method with mayonnaise
Mayonnaise is loved by everyone for its characteristic vinegar-mustard note and fat content, which makes all dishes with it satisfying. In winter, when there are not enough vitamins, but the soul requires substantial snacks, you can prepare an interesting version of the salad with cabbage and mayonnaise dressing.
We will need:
- 300 g white or Chinese cabbage;
- 200 g fresh cucumber;
- 300 g carrots;
- a large bunch of greenery.
It is better to take very high quality mayonnaise, with high fat content. So, according to nutritionists, the sauce will not contain harmful starch, and the taste will only benefit.
We cut the vegetables into strips, mix, sprinkle with fresh herbs and season with mayonnaise. Let the salad brew and eat it with boiled potatoes. You can add crab sticks to the dish and get a new and interesting option for holiday serving.
Korean cabbage and carrot salad
Many people are seduced by Korean salads - they beckon with their aromas! But not everyone is ready to take a risk and purchase a snack prepared in unknown conditions and, possibly, without observing hygiene rules. Why risk your health when it's easy to make your own snack?
For the Korean salad we will prepare:
- half a kilo of cabbage;
- 400 g carrots;
- several cloves of garlic;
- package of spices “for Korean carrots” - 1 pc.;
- oil - 100 ml;
- vinegar 9% - 3 tbsp. l;
- sugar, salt to taste.
Adjust the amount of spices and vinegar to your liking. If you like it spicy, then add a little more spice.
- Thinly slice the vegetables. We recommend chopping cabbage and carrots on a special grater to get thin and long strips. You can use a vegetable peeler - the knife is often suitable for Korean carrots.
- Lightly mash the prepared vegetables with your hands and add some salt to make the salad juicier. But you don’t need to be zealous; just a few seconds are enough.
- Add spices and vinegar.
- We are preparing the dressing. To do this, heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan until a slight smoke appears.
- Pour boiling oil over the vegetables and stir with a spoon.
Instead of the usual sunflower oil, use sesame oil - the salad will acquire a slight nutty flavor.
Now you need to put the salad under a press and put it in the refrigerator for several hours - it should brew. When you take the dish out of the refrigerator, you will be very surprised at how aromatic and tasty your Korean version is!
Let's prepare:
- Chinese cabbage - a small fork;
- 2 carrots;
- long cucumber;
- 3 cloves of garlic (less possible);
- small package of Feta cheese (or Serbian soft cheese) - 100-200 g.
Shred the cabbage and cucumber into small strips, and grate the carrots on a coarse grater (it’s better if you get thin, long shavings). Cut the feta into cubes. Squeeze the garlic into the vegetables, add the cheese and mix everything. You can season the salad with a drop of olive oil, but in principle, the Feta will disperse and turn into a thick cheese sauce. Garlic salad is delicious cold, so refrigerate it before serving.
You only need dense cabbage, winter varieties, for example, “Slava”. It is better to leave loose varieties for stewing or frying.
- Finely chop the cabbage and grate the carrots.
- Add some salt and knead everything well with your hands so that the vegetables become juicy.
- Add sugar, vegetable oil and a little vinegar. The vinegar should barely be caught, giving a slight sourness to the salad. If you feel that you have gone too far with this ingredient, add a little sugar or chop a little more vegetables, otherwise it will “overwhelm” their taste.
- The salad is infused for an hour and a half and served to the table.
There is one more trick. In canteens they cook in large quantities, and this helps the appetizer to brew even better, become richer and juicier.
We serve the salad with meat and fish - it is ideal as an independent side dish. It’s easy to add some green peas to it and serve it with a boiled egg. Get a hearty and healthy breakfast.
Cabbage is inexpensive almost all year round. In our area, where fresh vegetables are only available for a few summer months, it saves you from vitamin deficiency. Plus, cabbage goes perfectly with meat ingredients, cheese, mushrooms and even fruits, so you can eat it endlessly without getting bored at all. Come up with your own variations of cabbage salad and pamper your loved ones with these benefits.
