Cabbage and cucumber salad is delicious and, despite its seemingly simple ingredients, it is far from ordinary. In fact, the spices and the dressing play a crucial role in its success. White cabbage and fresh cucumbers pair beautifully with cumin and sesame seeds. It is also essential to use a flavourful oil to dress a salad. We chose sesame oil. If you prefer pumpkin seeds, add pumpkin seeds to the salad; if you prefer sunflower seeds (preferably unrefined), then use those (ideally unroasted). Pine nuts pair well with nut butter, and so on. Lemon-infused olive oil is also an excellent option for a cabbage and cucumber salad.
