Red cabbage salad with apples

Clean and wash the red cabbage, cut it into 4 parts and, having removed the pith, chop it very thinly (with a sharp knife or on a shredder). Put the cabbage in a pot, pour boiling water over it, cover it with a lid, let it stand for 20-30 minutes, then cover it with a sieve or colander. Then pour cold water over it, squeeze, put it in a salad bowl, dress with vinegar, salt, sugar, mix and let stand for another 20-30 min. Add apples, peeled from skin and cut into slices or cubes, to the ready salad. You can add 1 tbsp. of vegetable oil to the salad.

Cabbage can not be scalded with boiling water, but salt and rubbed with hands until it becomes soft and does not start to release dark juice. Then squeeze the cabbage and pour vinegar over it, add sugar and stir. After a few minutes, the colour of the cabbage will become bright.

Salad is served with meat, game, poultry and fish. For 500 g of cabbage - 2 apples, ¼ cup of vinegar, 2 tbsp. sugar (to grind cabbage - 1/2 teaspoon of salt).
