Sauris North Dakota 1920’s – 30’s

Cabbage and Apple Salad

3 c. shredded cabbage                                             sour cream

1 c. chopped apple                                                   vinegar

Salt and paprika                                                        sugar

Mix cabbage and apple and season lightly with salt, sugar and paprika.  Toss with silver fork till seasoning is well mingled, and add just enough thick sour cream to bind the ingredients together, and only enough vinegar to give a piquant flavor.  the success of this salad depends on the artistry of the mixer, as either too much vinegar or this cream will result in a sloppy unappetizing dish.  All ingredients should be very cold.  Serve at once with cream wafers.
