A fresh and crunchy salad featuring broccoli, cauliflower, and a tangy dressing.
Chop the broccoli and cauliflower into bite-sized pieces.
Cut the vegetables into uniform sizes for even mixing and a better presentation.
Dice the red onion finely.
Rinse the diced onion under cold water to reduce its sharpness if desired.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, cider vinegar, and red wine vinegar until smooth.
Chill the dressing for 10 minutes to enhance its flavor.
Combine the broccoli, cauliflower, onion, and raisins in a large mixing bowl.
Ensure the raisins are evenly distributed for a balanced sweetness.
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Use a spatula to scrape all the dressing from the bowl to avoid waste.
Just before serving, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and toasted sunflower seeds on top.
Add the toppings right before serving to maintain their texture.
Serve the salad chilled and enjoy.
Garnish with a sprig of parsley for an added touch of color.
