Can I make Red Cabbage Salad ahead?

Yes, it takes well to being made ahead. The base of Red Cabbage Salad is cabbage, which holds up: it keeps three to four days refrigerated and tastes better after a few hours, once the dressing has soaked in. Hold back a spoonful of dressing to freshen it before serving. Add the caraway seeds at the table so it stays crisp. It does not freeze.

Can I halve or double Red Cabbage Salad?

Yes. As written it serves 4. Halved, the cabbage drops from 1 head to 1/2 head; doubled, it is 2 heads. Every line in this entry carries its half and double quantity, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. When doubling on the stovetop, use your widest pan or work in two batches so the food sears instead of steaming.
