I thought this was a great salad! I used 1/4 cup of sugar, and ended up sprinkling extra vinegar on top. I also added cracked black pepper, one cucumber, 2 tomatoes, and a stalk of celery to increase the variety of veggies. Great leftover too. I will make this again!

The mustard seeds will begin to pop in the pan as they toast. Make the salad two hours ahead so the flavors meld. The warm dressing won't wilt the hardy cabbage, but it will make the leaves crisp-tender as they marinate.
