Cabbage Carrot Salad – Cabbage is a popular vegetable in Germany and you can use it for different dishes such as Sauerkraut of course but also for salads.
Cabbage tastes good pickled, hot and cold and raw. One popular German recipe is of course Sauerkraut but that’s not the only cabbage recipe. In a former recipe we showed you how to male Sauerkraut stew and Sauerkraut soup, today it will be a Cabbage salad combined with carrots, hazelnuts and a horseradish dressing. It is a nice addition for the BBQ. Happy Cooking!
