Wet Salad!


What is "Wet Salad"?

What I call "wet salad" is when you make a salad using cabbage (sliced, diced, or shredded) in place of regular lettuce. You then saturate your salad with your choice of dressing (I usually use vinegar). Wet salad has a great crispy texture. It could stand for hours even days without becoming soggy like a salad made with regular dressing would.

For an ideal wet salad, after you mix all of the ingredients together, let it stand for about 2 hours. This will ensure the flavors of the dressing are being worked in to the cabbage and the other veggies. Below is a wet salad that I love to make.

Mix together the following:

Shredded Green Cabbage
Sliced Cucumbers
Sliced Carrots
Sliced Green Peppers
Sliced Vidalia (red) Onions
Fresh minced Garlic
Fresh Cracked Pepper
Salt
Balsamic or White Vinegar

I was inspired to create the wet salad above when I ate something similar to it at a really great restaurant in NJ called “Harold’s of NYC”. This salad makes for a huge flavor blast! It is also very healthy. Use the wet salad as a side dish to sandwiches such as subs/hoagies or even hamburgers.

If you notice I did not tell you how much to use of each ingredient above. I have done this on purpose so you can control your own taste pallet. In other words, use as much or as little of everything as you would like. For the olive lovers out there, feel free to throw a few olives in.

Enjoy!

P.S. Play around with wet salad, replace the lettuce in some of your ordinary favorite salads with cabbage.
