Steps:
- Finely shred the head of cabbage; do not chop. Combine the green onions and cabbage in a large bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Make the crunchies: Melt the butter in a pot. Mix the ramen noodles, sesame seeds and almonds into the pot with the melted butter. Spoon the mixture onto a baking sheet and bake the crunchies in the preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven, turning often to make sure they do not burn. When they are browned remove them from the oven.
- Make the dressing: In a small saucepan, heat vinegar, oil, sugar, and soy sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, let boil for 1 minute. Remove the pan from heat and let cool.
- Combine dressing, crunchies, and cabbage immediately before serving. Serve right away or the crunchies will get soggy.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp napa cabbage. Look for heads that are firm and have tightly packed leaves.
- Shred the cabbage thinly so that it will absorb the dressing more easily.
- Toast the peanuts before adding them to the salad. This will bring out their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Use a sharp knife to mince the ginger. This will help to release its flavor and prevent it from becoming stringy.
- Adjust the amount of dressing to your liking. If you prefer a lighter dressing, use less oil or vinegar. If you like a more flavorful dressing, add more.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. If you are chilling the salad, be sure to let it come to room temperature before serving so that the flavors can meld.
