Getting the veggies ready is the first step. Both the green and red cabbage should be shredded very thinly and placed in a big salad dish. You may assist the leaves of the green cabbage become somewhat more pliable by using your hands to sprinkle a quarter of a teaspoon of salt over it and then gently massaging it in.
To the dish containing the cabbages, add the cucumber that has been cut. If you so like, garnish the cucumber with a little amount of the salt that is still available.

The onion should be sliced very thinly and then added to the bowl. Following that, take the carrot and either grate it or chop it into fine matchsticks (julienne), and then add it to the other veggies that are already in the bowl.
In order to ensure that the walnuts retain their satisfying crunch, you should give them a rough chop so that they are in tiny pieces. They should be added to the salad.
Let’s go on over to the dressing now. Gather the garlic that has been minced, olive oil, honey, mustard, rice vinegar, and soy sauce into a small bowl and mix them together. Mix them together with a whisk until you have a dressing that is silky smooth and emulsified.

The dressing should be tasted, and the tastes should be adjusted as desired. If you would like it to be sweeter, add a tiny bit more honey; if you want it to be more sour, add a dash more vinegar.
The salad should be tossed with the dressing once it has been poured over it until everything is evenly covered. For the flavors to combine, the salad should be let to rest for around ten minutes before being served.
Perform one last toss of the salad and then taste it. Adjust the seasoning by adding more salt if necessary.
