Cabbage salad
Description
Perfect for everyday meals. Preparing the "Soviet Canteen" cabbage salad is very easy. Minimal cost, and you'll have a wonderful side dish for hot or cold meals, or a satisfying standalone appetizer for lunch and dinner. This cabbage salad was quite popular on the menus of Soviet cafeterias and canteens. To achieve that authentic "canteen-style" flavor, the salad should be chilled in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours, and only regular 9% table vinegar should be used for dressing. Garnish as desired and serve.
