2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon oregano, optional
1/2 teaspoon basil, optional
2 cups cabbage, finely shredded
In a small bowl, combine vinegar, oil, sugar, salt, pepper, oregano and basil. Place the cabbage in a separate large bowl and pour the dressing over. Using clean hands, squeeze and knead the cabbage well to release juices. Do a taste test and adjust the flavor to your preference. Put a heavy bowl on top of the salad and weigh it down. Leave the salad to rest overnight in the refrigerator.
