Preparation Steps
  1. In a small measuring cup, combine sunflower oil, vinegar, fine salt, and ground black pepper. Whisk until the salt is dissolved (1-2 minutes).

  3. Remove any soft outer leaves from the green cabbage. Thinly slice the cabbage into fine shreds (about 1/8 inch thick) and place in a large mixing bowl.
  4. Thinly slice the cucumbers and finely chop the green onions and fresh dill. Add these to the bowl with the shredded cabbage.
  5. Drizzle the prepared dressing over the vegetables and gently toss until all ingredients are fully combined.
  6. You can serve the salad immediately or let it chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to a couple of hours.
