For a richer flavor, use apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar. Adjust the amount of sugar to your preference – some like it sweeter than others. This salad is best served warm but can also be enjoyed at room temperature. Try adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard for a more complex flavor profile.
