Crisp green cabbage gets salted and pressed until perfectly crunchy, then tossed with sweet grated carrot and sliced scallion greens for color and bite. The dressing whisks together tangy apple cider vinegar, a touch of sugar, sharp Dijon mustard, celery seed, and black pepper into a smooth, well-balanced coating for every shred of veg. A short rest in the fridge softens the cabbage just enough and lets all those flavors meld into a cool, punchy slaw. It's the kind of make-ahead side that only gets better sitting covered in the fridge, ready to spoon onto sandwiches, pulled meats, or straight alongside dinner. This one is a solid pick for a dairy free spread, no fuss required.
