AUNT ELLA'S CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• Grate cabbage.
• Combine cabbage, green pepper, celery, garlic powder, celery seed, salt, and pepper. Let rest 5 minutes to begin to meld flavors and draw the juice out of the cabbage.
• Toss with oil and lemon juice.
• Refrigerate for at least an hour.
• Taste, and adjust flavors. It should be noticeably lemony but the garlic should be an undertone.
• Some cabbages are juicier than others so if the salad seems dry add more oil then check to see if more lemon is needed.
• Note -- Choose a young, green cabbage with a nice, dense head.
• Note -- Cabbage can be finely sliced instead of grating it. But I do not recommend pre-sliced, bagged cabbage/slaw mix because it is too dry.
• Note -- If necessary, it can be made 3-4 hours ahead of the meal.
