Raw Cruciferous Detox Salad Recipe
This raw cruciferous detox slaw is one of those recipes I make over and over again. It’s crisp, refreshing, and endlessly adaptable—something I prepare several times a week, each time with a little variation depending on what’s fresh, seasonal, or intuitively calling to me. At its core, this slaw features raw cabbage and kale—two cruciferous vegetables rich in glucosinolates, compounds that support the body’s detoxification pathways through the formation of sulforaphane and other bioactive metabolites. Preparing them raw preserves their delicate enzymes and enhances their cleansing properties.
