Recently, good friends of our hosted a gourmet German dinner party and I offered to bring a salad. I perused various German salad recipes but all were either too heavy, or just not appealing in the context of the dinner I knew we were having. So after reading a lot of them, I took various elements that I liked from many of them, combined them into one salad and, even if I do say so myself, it was delicious!
About 2 hours before serving, I combined the following in a large bowl:
1 bag of shredded cabbage
1 large cucumber, diced
1/2 red onion, diced
1 package of fresh dill, minced
I tossed it with the following dressing and let it marinate:
2 tbsp. sour cream
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
And then right before serving, I also tossed in 6 ounces of dark leafy green lettuce (anything on the darker side would work - -baby kale would be amazing)
