Steps:
- 1. Slice the snow peas on the diagonal into thin matchstick-sized pieces.
- 2. For carrots, you can purchase matchstick carrots, or slice them yourself (make sure to use a very sharp chef's knife).
- 3. I cut the cabbage into four wedges. We will only use 1 of the wedges. Then, I shred the cabbage as thinly as possible. To do this, use a vegetable peeler and go along the corner, or use a box grater with large holes or use a sharp knife to shred by hand.
- 4. Now for the fennel, cut the white bulb from the green top. Cut the bulb into quarters and slice one of the quarters as thin as possible using a knife, a vegetable peeler or a mandoline. Save all the leftover fennel for another recipe.
- 5. The dressing ingredients are simple: ponzu, toasted sesame oil, sesame seeds and salt. Add 1/4 cup of ponzu to a bowl, then add the sesame oil and seeds. Season with a big pinch of salt and whisk with fork.
- 6. Pour the dressing over the snow peas, carrots, cabbage and fennel.
- 7. Toss to combine and taste. You can add more ponzu and salt if needed and serve immediately..

Tips:
- For a truly authentic Asian coleslaw, use a mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. This will help to create a uniform texture and allow the dressing to evenly coat the vegetables.
- If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a sharp knife to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. Just be sure to slice them as thinly as possible.
- To save time, you can use a pre-made coleslaw mix. However, if you have the time, making your own coleslaw is definitely worth the effort.
- The ponzu dressing is what really makes this Asian coleslaw special. Be sure to use a high-quality ponzu sauce. You can find ponzu sauce at most Asian grocery stores or online.
- If you don't have ponzu sauce, you can make your own by combining soy sauce, rice vinegar, mirin, and dashi powder. The recipe for homemade ponzu sauce is included in the blog post.
- Garnish the Asian coleslaw with sesame seeds, scallions, or cilantro before serving. This will add a pop of color and flavor.
- Serve the Asian coleslaw immediately or chill it for later. The coleslaw will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
Asian coleslaw is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a new side dish, give Asian coleslaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
