Ingredients for Cabbage Salad with Smoked Salmon

For the salad:

1 small pointed cabbage or other white cabbage variety (about 1lb 10oz (750g))

1 pinch ground caraway seeds

1 onion, peeled and diced

2 tablespoons canola oil

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

7oz (200g) smoked salmon (or other smoked fish)

freshly ground salt and pepper

For the dressing:

3 tablespoons mustard (or Dijon mustard)

2 tablespoons honey

2 tablespoons white wine vinegar

½ cup canola oil

1 bunch dill, finely chopped

freshly ground salt and pepper

How to make Cabbage Salad with Smoked Salmon

1 For the salad, quarter the cabbage, remove stalk, and chop into thin slices. Add to a bowl with salt, pepper, and ground caraway seeds; lightly mash. Heat canola oil in a frying pan and sweat the onions for three minutes, then deglaze with the white wine vinegar. Fold in the cabbage mixture and allow to rest for 30 minutes, covered.

2 In the meantime, make the dressing by combining the mustard, honey, white wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk in the canola oil as if you were making mayonnaise: Add it little by little until emulsified (preferably with an immersion blender). Fold the dill into the dressing. Season to taste. 

3 Cut the smoked salmon into thick slices using a sharp knife. Combine the cabbage mixture and dressing, then transfer onto plates along with the smoked salmon. Serve.
