In Sweden, almost any pizzeria you come across will serve a simple cabbage salad to go along withcabbage_salad your pizza. The cabbage salad basically consists of shredded cabbage, and a vinaigrette with white wine vinegar, oil, salt, sugar and lots of black pepper. It has a strong vinegar taste, is quite oily and is quite good in its simplicity, perfect to make at home.

Cabbage is cheap, crunchy and stays for a few days in the fridge, so we like to make a big batch just to have around. Believe it or not, it goes very well on the side with some pizza! Sometimes we add a few carrots for color and taste, as well as some garlic and mustard - however if you’re a traditionalist you might want to take a pass on those ingredients…

Ingredients:

  • 1 small head of cabbage, shredded
  • 4 carrots, peeled and grated

Vinaigrette (approximate measurements):

  • 7 tablespoons vegetable oil (not olive oil)
  • 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 3 garlic cloves, pressed
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper

Name: Kim | Comment: Aah! The recipe is wrong! 3 Tablespoons of black pepper is entirely too much. I would suggest starting with 1 tablespoon and going from there. My mouth is on fire!

Name: Kim | Comment: Thanks, but I'm still having trouble. I made this recipe again with all the correct amounts, and it was way too salty. Are you sure that the salt and pepper aren't supposed to be teaspoons instead of tablespoons? Maybe it's just my taste.
