ASIAN STYLE SLAW



Asian Style Slaw image

I always like to have a few salads at my BBQ to balance out the heavier stuff. Cole slaw is one of the classics, and I love it, but I like to make it my own by mixing in a few Asian flavors. I use the pre-shredded coleslaw mix that comes in bags at the supermarket or for red and green shredded cabbage packaged separately. And then I dress it up with some other fresh ingredients to make an outstanding and different kind of slaw.

Time 10m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 bunch (6 large) scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced
2 (16-ounce) bags coleslaw mix or 1 (16-ounce) bag each of shredded green and shredded red cabbage
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger (from about a 1-inch piece)
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
2 teaspoons sesame seeds, optional
1 teaspoon salt
20 grinds black pepper

Steps:

  • Rough up the scallion slices a little with your fingers so all the little layers of the scallion whites separate. Toss the coleslaw mix or both kinds of cabbage, the red onion and scallions together in a large bowl until everything is thoroughly mixed. You can make the slaw up to this point up to a day in advance as long as you keep it refrigerated. Before serving, simply bring the slaw back to room temperature, make the dressing and toss.
  • Stir the remaining ingredients together in a small bowl until blended, then pour over the vegetables. Serve within 1 hour of dressing or the cabbage will get wilty and sad.

ASIAN SLAW WITH PONZU DRESSING



Asian Slaw with Ponzu Dressing image

Recipe posted for play in Culinary Quest. This recipe is from website: http://steamykitchen.com Ponzu is a Japanese "sauce" however I refer to it as both a dressing and sauce. It's much lighter than soy sauce, with a distinctive tangy lemon/orange flavor combined with a savory note. It's a perfect balance of salty, sweet...

Categories     Other Salads

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 head cabbage, shredded
1/4 lb snow peas, cut on the diagonal into matchsticks
2 carrots, cut into matchsticks
1/4 fennel bulb, sliced as thinly as possible
1/3 1/3 cup ponzu sauce, mitsukan brand preferred
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon dark or toasted sesame oil
salt

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..
