This super-flexible, all-purpose salad turns cabbage into luscious tangles of crisp leaves generously coated in a rich and bright dressing. It is guaranteed to go with any and all grilled foods, meaty mains like fried chicken, and hoagies that require two hands. Serve it right away or let it sit overnight—it’s good either way.
