Looking for a dressing to put on a cabbage salad. Not coleslaw, just a salad with green cabbage instead of lettuce.

Apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, olive oil, a bit of black pepper and sea salt. Delicious and healthy!

equal parts rice wine vinegar and peanut oil
a spoonful of orange marmalade
s + p
toasted sesame seeds
fresh mint if you have any

A great and simple dressing is seasoned rice vinegar that's it

Bleu cheese and ranch dressings also work very well over a cabbage salad. I'll frequently switch out cabbage for lettuce for my side salads, and use whatever dressing I have in the fridge.

I like an Asian style dressing over cabbage salad.

A Southern favorite in my home town is "John's Slaw Dressing". Which is served over "angle hair cut" raw cabbage.

It's a rather sweet almost 'catalina' style dressing but with mayo and a lighter color and slightly sweet.
Start with a Italian vinaigrette, add a tsp or so of sugar, Mayo and Ketchup to make a light terracotta color; more oil and lemon juice to adjust the taste and texture. salt and pepper of course.

My favorite is simple. Just olive oil, lime juice, garlic (powder; yeah I know..go the long way if you like), a touch of red pepper flakes and mustard, salt/pepper.

Mix some creme fraiche, lemon juice and mustard together in a bowl, add a pinch of salt and pepper, then toss in your cabbage. Or a mustard vinaigrette--a tablespoon of mustard shaken up with oil, white wine vinegar or lemon juice and salt and pepper.
