Cabbage Salad

greekk6bg
Traditionally, in our village in Greece, we eat tomato salads in the summer, and cabbage and lettuce salads in the winter. This isn't a hard fast rule, however, we do eat a market-inspired cuisine, and traditional tomatoes do not grow in our village in the winter months. This includes the another famous trifecta of perfection: fresh dill, green onions and cucumbers.

Notes

I'm sure you can try any other lettuce you like, however, the original recipe is done with romaine lettuce. The sturdy lettuce leaves are great for holding the greek olive oil dressing used with this recipe. You can remake the dressing in advance.
