With the arrival of spring, I want to diversify my diet with fresh vegetables. This cabbage salad is very versatile. For a variety of taste, you can add a little Bulgarian pepper or grated apple to it.

The salad is very tasty, fragrant and very crispy!

The skin, if it is not rough, not damaged and not bitter, does not need to be cut.

If you use ready-made spice mixes, be sure to read the composition on the package. Often, salt is already present in such mixtures, take this into account, otherwise you risk over-salting the dish.
