- The most important thing for this recipe is the size of your grated cabbage. I used a mandolin with the blade for the smallest French Fry setting. You don't want your cabbage to be too fine. A food processor tends to make too fine a dice. If you don't have a mandolin, I would consider slicing the cabbage finely by hand. Cut the cabbage into quarters and take fine slices off the outside pointy edges.
