- Gather the ingredients. Cabbage is about as versatile as vegetables get — it's the base for countless salads and preserves and pairs well with all sorts of other vegetables. It's cheap at harvest time, yet it's very good for you and loaded with vitamins. Along with the cabbage and rice, this salad uses tomatoes, carrots, and onions, which give it a fuller, brighter flavor — cabbage and rice alone would taste a bit flat. Strip the dirty, dry outer leaves off the cabbage and shred it finely with a knife, a shredder, or a food processor; for a big batch, the processor speeds things up considerably. Wash, peel, and slice the carrots into rounds. Peel the onions and cut them into small cubes. Wash the tomatoes and peel them — dunk them in boiling water, then into cold water, and slip the skins off. Put all the chopped vegetables in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot. Add the salt and sugar and set over the heat. Once it boils, give it a stir, lower the heat to medium, and simmer about 20 minutes. Use long-grain rice so it doesn't cook down to mush in the jar. Rinse it well under running water, cover with water, add a little salt, set over the heat, and cook about 10 minutes from the time the water boils. Then add the rice to the pot of vegetables. Pour in the vegetable oil and add the peppercorns. Stir and simmer about 10 minutes more, then pour in the table vinegar and stir. Turn off the heat. Ahead of time, sterilize small jars by your preferred method — water bath, oven, or microwave — and boil and dry the lids. Pack the hot mixture straight into the jars, seal, and let cool at room temperature under a warm blanket. Move them to the pantry for storage. Enjoy!
