Grate the cabbage and put it in a big dish in layers which have been salted before putting the next layer on. Salt the last layer, then put some clingfilm directly on top of the cabbage and put kitchen towel on top of that. Next put a heavy pot or something on top of the kitchen towel and let it marinate for at least 3 hours, but better over night.

Wash the cabbage when it has been marinated long enough, drain it and add lemon juice and cumin. Marinate again for at least an hour (cabbage usually takes a while to take the taste of the spices you add).

For Bavarian Cabbage Salad:

Marinate with salt as described above, then wash and drain. Add caraway seeds and thin stripes of crispy, fried bacon, sugar, more salt (if necessary), red wine vinegar and vegetable oil. Mix and marinate for at least an hour.

Tip: Put the bacon still hot on the salad and mix immediately.
