- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp Valdelsa onion tears
- 2 tsp sweet mustard
- to taste salt
Tools
- 1 Cutting Board

Steps
Clean the red cabbage by removing the outer leaves. Wash it and pat dry with paper towels or a clean cloth. Thinly slice it using a mandoline. You can also use a cutting board and knife for this operation, but the mandoline is much more convenient and faster. In a bowl, mix the oil, red wine vinegar, Valdelsa onion tears, salt, and mustard with a whisk. Work to thoroughly blend all the ingredients to create a smooth and homogeneous emulsion. Place the red cabbage in a bowl or salad bowl and season it with the emulsion, mixing to distribute it well. Cover and let it rest for three hours or preferably overnight. After the necessary marinating time, drain the liquid that has formed, add a bit more dressing if necessary, and serve.
