Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 2 large Carrot
- 1 small Onion
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and cut the cabbage into quarters. Cut out the core and thinly slice each quarter to create fine shreds. Use a sharp knife or a mandoline for best results.
Step 2
Peel the carrots and grate them using a box grater or a food processor for finer texture.
Step 3
Finely chop the onion and add it to the cabbage and carrots in a large mixing bowl.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, sugar, caraway seeds, and black pepper until well blended.
Step 5
Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss everything together until the cabbage, carrots, and onions are evenly coated with the dressing.
Step 6
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salat. Gently fold it in to incorporate.
Step 7
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly.
Step 8
Serve chilled as a side dish. Enjoy your low sodium Krautsalat!
