400-500 grams (~16 oz.) white cabbage ½ a medium cabbage
4 tablespoons white wine vinegar to taste
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt to taste
1 teaspoon cracked black pepper to taste (reduce if you are very sensitive to it)
2 teaspoons dried oregano

Use a vegetable peeler to shave the cabbage into a large mixing bowl. It must be a vegetable peeler to get very thin, small slices of the cabbage.
400-500 grams (~16 oz.) white cabbage
Add the vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper to the cabbage. Use your hands to massage the dressing into the cabbage, mixing for at least a minute, until the cabbage is slightly softened and well coated in the dressing. Add the oregano and mix to combine.
4 tablespoons white wine vinegar, 4 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon sea salt, 1 teaspoon cracked black pepper, 2 teaspoons dried oregano
Serve immediately if necessary. If you have the time, let it rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes or up to two hours before serving. Leftovers can be kept in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to a week.

You could probably use the thinnest slice setting on a food processor to 'shave' the cabbage, but I've never tried it. Would be quicker!
