  This recipe was given to Willinger by the late Torquato Innocenti, the local farmer whom Willinger considered her muse. Whenever she bought vegetables from his stand, he would give her terrific ideas for how to use them. Willinger wanted to honor his recipe-sharing tradition by passing this delicious slaw along to our readers.

  1/2 medium green cabbage

  1 medium red onion

  2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar

  Fine sea salt to taste
