Tangy Apple-Cabbage Slaw
In step 1, the salted,
rinsed, and dried cabbage can be refrigerated in a zipper-lock bag for up to 24
hours. To prep the apples, cut the cored apples into ¼-inch-thick planks, then
stack the planks and cut them into thin matchsticks.

Instructions
- 1. Toss cabbage and salt in colander set over medium bowl. Let stand until wilted, about 1 hour. Rinse cabbage under cold water, drain, dry well with paper towels, and transfer to large bowl. Add apples and scallions and toss to combine.
- 2. Bring oil, vinegar, sugar, mustard, and pepper flakes to boil in saucepan over medium heat. Pour over cabbage mixture and toss to coat. Cover with plastic and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 1 day. Serve.
Note: Would recommend refrigerating for at least 1 hour or more. Definitely tastes better the longer refrigerated and even better as a left-over!!!
