CURTIDO (SALVADOREAN PICKLED COLESLAW)

Steps:

• Mix cabbage, carrots and chiles in a large bowl. Pour salt evenly over the mixture. Gently pour boiling water over mixture and allow to cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Pour vinager over mixture and add oregano. Carefully mix every thing together and add more salt if neccessary. Note: I always allow the completed curtido to sit overnight before serving.
