Cabbage Salad

 O Wood Cabbage Salad 

Our grandmother from North Dakota for a strange reason traditional American cabbage salad was calling O Wood Cabbage Salad. This is the most traditional white cabbage salad as I know, but for some reason about which our grandmother has not talked our family called this salad- O Wood Cabbage Salad.

1 head of white cabbage

2-5 ripe red apples- depends on the cabbage

1/2 cup of nut meats

1 cup of white granulated sugar

1 cup of salad dressing- mayonaise

1 cup of heavy cream

You need to soak your white cabbage in a salty water for two three hours. Then chop finely separate equal parts  of the  cabbage and the  ripe  red apples. The salad will look nice if you shred them. Add to this salad  1/2 cup of  the chopped nuts and 1 cup of white granulated sugar. Cover  the salad with salad dressing mixed with cream - proportion- one cup of dressing like mayonnaise and 1 cup of heavy cream. Put the salad into the fridge for two three hours and then serve.
