BTW what's the ethnicity of your Red Cabbage recipe?
My SALAD is Israeli. I went to Israel in 1971 at the age of 28, between 2 years of doing a graduate degree. & did 6 weeks of that trip on a Kibbutz. At lunch for 4 people the following salad ingredients were on the tables of the Hadar Ochel or Dining Hall:
- 4 medium tomatoes
- 4 cucumbers, 4" long 3/4" in diameter
- 1 medium onion
- 1 large green pepper.
We cut this up for ourselves. By the time we'd eaten our salad, the kibbutz members then serving in the kitchen had brought our hot dish for the mid-day meal.
When I did a turn working at the youth hostel, grated carrots were added to the salad.
If you use salt in a salad for 4 people, use only 1/8th tsp or less.
Keeps 4 days when refrigerated.

When we travelled away from the Kibbutz, with the salad we were sometimes served an Israeli cream cheese - which is sort of a cross between cream cheese, rocotta cheese and cottage cheese. If I remember correctly, one can get a cream cheese by Liberty in Montreal which is very close to the Israeli cream cheese.
Looks delicious! We'll try this one.
