This salad does a great job of cleansing the body of toxins and waste. Its main highlight is a zesty sweet-sour-spicy dressing. You can also make this salad with regular green cabbage, and feel free to add more variety of fresh herbs.

Step 1:

How do you make a purple cabbage salad? Gather the ingredients.
Step 2:

Finely shred the cabbage.
Step 3:

Peel the carrot and cut it into strips, or grate it on a Korean-style julienne grater. Wash the cucumber and cut it into strips.
Step 4:

Wash the apple, remove the core, and cut it into strips. You can peel it if you like. Sweet-and-sour varieties (Semerenko, Granny Smith) are best.
Step 5:

Wash, dry, and finely chop the dill.
Step 6:

Combine the vegetables, apple, and herbs in a salad bowl.
Step 7:

The dressing.
Step 8:

Combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, jam (I used apricot), mustard, salt, and pepper.
Step 9:

Whisk until smooth.
Step 10:

Pour the dressing over the salad.
Step 11:

Mix well.

The salad will look neat and attractive if you cut all the ingredients into pieces of the same size and shape (cubes, for example).
Since everyone's tolerance for saltiness, sweetness, bitterness, sharpness, acidity, and heat is different, always add spices and seasonings to your own taste! If you're using a particular seasoning for the first time, keep in mind that some are especially easy to overdo (chili pepper, for example).
