Purple cabbage pickle salad with cheese combines tangy pickled purple cabbage with cheese. Recipes vary according to the cheese and how sharp the pickle is, rather than following one fixed regional tradition. The cabbage stays pleasantly crisp, while its acidity contrasts with the cheese’s mild, creamy or salty character.
Serve it as a side with grilled food, in a sandwich, or alongside grains and other salads; it also works as part of a mezze-style spread. At 92 calories per 100 g, it is a relatively light salad, with protein from the cheese and fibre from the cabbage. If you prefer a milder, lighter version, drain the cabbage well and use a modest amount of cheese without adding extra oil.
