Instant Cabbage Salad

Uses the food processor

One package of pre-cut green cabbage

One medium white or purple onion or one shallot

Sea salt and oil to taste

Put the blade into the food processor, rather than the disk.  Chop the onion or shallot in the food processor very briefly, using the pulse button. Add the cabbage in one or two batches depending on the size of your food processor. Pulse a few times till the cabbage is chopped. Transfer to a bowl. Add a few tablespoons of oil, sprinkle with salt, and mix well.

Daikon Salad

Uses the food processor

A daikon is an oriental radish with a relatively mild flavor. It looks like a long smooth white root. Mild black radishes can be substituted. It is preferable to  choose a slim daikon that will slide through the tube without having to cut it.

 

One daikon or other mild large radish, peeled

One medium white or purple onion or one shallot

Sea salt and oil to taste

Use the grating disk of the food processor to grate the onion or shallot with the daikon.  Transfer to a bowl, add a few tablespoons of oil, sprinkle with salt, and mix well.
