The Jewish people made this during the great depression and this is one of the original recipes. I substitute cucumber slices for the green peppers as I don’t like green bell pepper.
Ingredients
- 1 head shredded cabbage- about 2lbs.
- 3 carrots sliced
- 2 cucumbers
- 2 green peppers ( I use sliced cucumbers in place of peppers)
- 1 large red onion thinly sliced
- 1 Buch radishes thinly sliced
- 1/2 bunch celery
Dressing
- 1 cup vegetable oil( or your preference)
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 1/2 cup white vinegar
- 10 to 12 Tablespoons sugar
- 1 Tablespoon salt
- 1 Tablespoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Slice all vegetables and place in a large bowl
- Mix sugar, salt, and garlic powder in bowl with warm water and stir until dissolved, add the vinegar and oil.
- Pour dressing over vegetables and mix well, pack into glass jars then divide and pour any remaining dressing evenly into the jars.
- The dressing is great, it is not to sweet because of the amount of vingar. I do not substitute things for the dressing. Enjoy because this stuff sure is delicious.
