Parmesan Cabbage Salad with Pinenuts and Basil

Parmesan Cabbage Salad

This is easy but it tastes like a million dollars. I made this Parmesan Cabbage Salad with Pine nuts and Basil because I had a similar one in a restaurant and it cost $22. I liked it then and I love it now.

It is the perfect salad. I am not kidding

It couldn’t get any better or easier. Follow me. This is how to impress.

The Perfect Salad

This salad stands alone but it makes a deep impression with  a Barbecue  or a roasted chicken and also makes an impact with a steak. Give it a go.

You do need to cut the cabbage razor thin if this salad is going to be the best it can be. I sliced it on a Japanese slicer. I also have another slicer that works in a similar way that will give you an idea on what you should use. Maybe you could even do it with a sharp vegetable peeler too.

The thing about it is that it is simple. It tastes of Parmesan, Basil and the sharpness of a vinegar dressing with the crunch of toasted Pinenuts.

This is so good. Once you have mastered shaving the cabbage the rest is down hill. You will be rewarded with a Parmesan flavoured hit of freshness and crunch that should be eaten as soon as it is dressed.

    I made similar salad with pointed cabbage and Italian parsley. Next time I am going to try your recipe with basil and hard cheese. It surely looks fab. with pine nuts.
