"Bring one of your cabbage salads!" I often hear this if I ask a hostess what I can bring to an event. There are several, including one made with cabbage*, scallions, celery, apple, pineapple, grapes, and coarsely-shredded carrot, dressed with mayonnaise**, honey, apple cider vinegar, pineapple juice, and curry powder. I don't use a recipe.
* If you can find a cabbage like the one in the picture, it'll make all the difference. Early cabbage is softer, juicier, tastier, and more tender. Look for folded green leaves and the distinctive shine—not present in rock-hard, whitish late cabbage.
** Miracle Whip users, please treat yourselves to a jar of real mayonnaise for this recipe. Kraft's is good, and there are others.
Oh, yum. And I don't think I've ever seen such a lusciously green cabbage.
ReplyDeleteThanks! My son grew it.
DeleteI love a good curry-flavoured mayonnaise. I must remember to revisit food month posts when salad season returns.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds great. And I keep trying to decide whether to on a Miracle Whip rant. I bloody hate Miracle Whip.
ReplyDeleteI do too. But I just deleted what I was going to say about it because I believe one of our own is a fan.
DeleteI know. And that's her right. I like some things that are terrible too.
DeleteI can remember liking some boys who were terrible.
DeleteI like so many terrible things, but none of you can see my pantry
ReplyDeleteI think you are talking about me.
ReplyDeleteThis salad sounds good, even without Miracle Whip.
