How to cook cabbage cucumber salad

Step 1. First, prepare all the necessary ingredients on the list. It is better to make a salad from young cabbage, as it is soft and juicy just for cooking salad. Wash the head of white cabbage, remove the decaying leaves and finely chop, bypassing the hard areas around the stalk. Put the cabbage in a large bowl and mash it well with your hands so that the cabbage will let the juice out. The upper cabbage leaves if it is not rough and damaged, does not need to be cut off.
