60 minutes

Eastern cabbage salad is a light, crunchy dish with bright notes of sweet and sour flavor that comes from Uzbek cuisine. It combines the freshness of cabbage, the aroma of roasted nuts and sesame seeds, as well as a rich marinade made from vinegar, soy sauce, and vegetable oil. This salad perfectly complements meat and vegetable dishes, adding zest and richness to them. Its roots go back to the traditions of Eastern cooking where simple ingredients are skillfully combined to create amazing flavor compositions. It is served immediately after preparation when the nuts and sesame are still warm and the cabbage has absorbed all the marinade's flavor. An ideal treat for those who appreciate a balance of flavors and textures!
