Mums Cabbage Salad Food

MOM'S SALAD

Steps:

• Combine the romaine, tomatoes, cucumber and onions in a large bowl.
• Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, sour cream, oregano and garlic in a small bowl to make the vinaigrette.
• Pour the vinaigrette over the salad, season with salt and pepper and toss to combine. Serve with more freshly cracked black pepper over the top.

WALDORF CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• Use a chef's knife to slice cabbage into thin pieces 1 to 2 inches long. Do not use the large ribs of the cabbage, as they are too strongly flavored.
• In a large bowl, toss together the cabbage, apples, walnuts, celery, mayonnaise, sugar and salt until evenly coated. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to one day.

"MILLION DOLLAR" CHINESE CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• In a bowl, whisk together vegetable oil, sugar, wine vinegar, and soy sauce until the sugar has dissolved. Refrigerate the dressing while preparing the salad.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Spread the broken ramen noodles, almonds, and sesame seeds onto a baking sheet.
• Bake the ramen noodle mixture until lightly browned, about 15 minutes, stirring often. Watch carefully to prevent burning. Allow mixture to cool.
• Just before serving, mix together the napa cabbage and green onions with toasted ramen mixture in a salad bowl until thoroughly combined; toss with the dressing.

NAPA CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• Put the garlic in a large salad bowl and mix in all the remaining ingredients except the cabbage.
• Trim the cabbage, removing and discarding damaged or wilted leaves, and cut the head crosswise into 1-inch slices. You should have about 8 cups. Wash well and spin dry in a salad dryer (moisture would dilute the dressing). Ten or 15 minutes before serving, add the cabbage to the dressing, toss well and set aside, so the dressing can penetrate the cabbage and soften it slightly.

MOM'S COLE SLAW OR CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• Soak cabbage halves in salt water to cover about 20 minutes.
• Rinse cabbage and rinse the bowl.
• Add A LITTLE salt (not too much) and rub into cabbage hard with your hands. Taste for salt. You don't rip the cabbage halves apart to do this; just rub the outside surfaces, because you have to sliver the cabbage in the next step, and you don't want it all messy. (I am not sure why this step is even necessary, but those were the original instructions.).
• Cut the cabbage into fine slivers and place in a large bowl.
• Grate in the carrot (1 if the cabbage head is small; 2 if large).
• Finely dice the green pepper. Mix well. (I didn't show an amount for the green pepper - it is not one of the main vegetables - just use enough to have flecks here and there in the salad, unless you want more.).
• Add mayonnaise - just enough to coat. Mix through.
• Stop here if you want grated cabbage salad.
• Continue with the recipe if you want cole slaw:.
• Mix 1 part apple cider vinegar to 2 parts water.
• Add gradually to cabbage mixture; taste for seasoning.
• Sweeten with whatever sweetener you want to use.
• Cover and refrigerate for a few hours or more for the flavors to develop.
