Savoy cabbage salad is an entrée that I love. Have you ever prepared it? I enjoy it as an appetizer but also as a side dish.

When I eat cabbage salad, it reminds me a lot of Trentino Alto Adige. It might be because I was inspired by the one I tasted there to make it.

Very simple to make and rich in beneficial properties, as I will tell you in the final part of the recipe.

Ingredients

Let’s see the ingredients we need to prepare the savoy cabbage salad

  • 5.3 oz savoy cabbage (thinly sliced)
  • 1.8 oz kale (thinly chopped)
  • to taste fennel seeds
  • to taste extra virgin olive oil
  • fine salt
  • balsamic vinegar (optional, if you like)

Tools

  • 1 Salad Bowl
  • 1 Knife

Steps

  • Actually, to prepare the savoy cabbage salad, I use two types of cruciferous vegetables. Savoy cabbage and kale. I think they pair well together.

    You can buy fresh vegetables or use the pre-cut thin strips you can find at the supermarket.

    If you buy fresh vegetables, wash them well before slicing them finely.

    After this step, take your two types of cabbage and put them in the salad bowl.

  • Separately, make an emulsion with oil, balsamic vinegar (if you like), salt, and fennel seeds.
    Add the liquids to the salad and mix well to flavor everything.

    The cabbage salad is ready to enjoy

Storage of Savoy Cabbage Salad

The already dressed savoy cabbage salad (ready salad) doesn’t keep well: 24 hours, maximum 48. Hi
Always keep it well covered in the fridge
If possible, dress only the portion you plan to eat: it stays crunchier

Hello, I'm Simona, and my page is called BriCciola in cucina, because I dedicated it to my mom and dad, who have called me that since I was little. I'm not a chef, and in my life, I've always dealt with completely different things, but cooking, along with dancing, has always been one of my great passions. However, my greatest inspiration came from the dishes prepared first by my grandmother and now by my mom. Here on my cooking blog, I'll guide you from appetizers to desserts, with recipes designed for a healthy and mindful lifestyle. Balanced dishes, carefully chosen ingredients, and lots of flavors, because eating well never means giving up pleasure. I love eating, but I also like taking care of my health, my family's health, and, in a way, the health of everyone who tries my recipes. That's why daily life should be rich in flavor, but always with a focus on healthy eating. Thank you, I look forward to seeing you.
