Shred the Cabbage: Using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer, finely shred the cabbage. Place the shredded cabbage in a large salad bowl.
Slice the Cucumber: Thinly slice the cucumber. For a more visually appealing salad, you can use a spiralizer to create cucumber ribbons. Add the cucumber to the bowl with the cabbage.
Slice the Onion: Thinly slice the red onion and add it to the bowl.
Chop the Herbs: Finely chop the fresh dill and parsley, and add them to the salad bowl.
Step 2: Make the Dressing
Combine the Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, honey (or agave syrup), salt, and pepper.
Mix Well: Ensure the dressing ingredients are well combined to create a smooth, balanced dressing.
Step 3: Assemble the Salad
Pour the Dressing: Pour the prepared dressing over the vegetables in the salad bowl.
Toss the Salad: Using salad tongs or clean hands, gently toss the salad to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Chill: For the best flavor, let the salad chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together.
