Time 1h15m

Yield 6 cups, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

1/2 head green cabbage, finely shredded (about 1 lb)
1/4 head red cabbage or 1/4 head purple cabbage, finely shredded
1 large carrot, peeled and grated
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons smooth natural-style peanut butter
2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon lime juice
1/2 teaspoon brown sugar, to taste
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ginger powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, to taste
1/2 teaspoon minced seeded jalapeno, to taste (optional)
2 medium kohlrabi, bulbs peeled and grated (1 1/2 to 2 cups)
1/4 cup julienned water chestnut
4 green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dried currant (optional)
salt and pepper, to taste
roasted sesame seeds, for garnish

Steps:

  • Toss the cabbages and carrot with 1 teaspoon salt in a colander set over a bowl or in the sink; let it stand until the cabbage wilts, which will take between 1 to 4 hours.
  • Rinse the cabbage under cold running water (if you're serving the slaw immediately, rinse under water and then in a large bowl of ice water to chill).
  • Press gently to drain then pat dry with paper towels; cabbage can be stored overnight in refrigerator to chill in a re-sealable container.
  • To make the dressing, in a food processor purée together the peanut butter, oil, vinegar, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, cayenne, and jalapeno (if using) until smooth (taste it at this point to see if you want to add more cayenne or jalapeno).
  • Toss the dressing with the cabbage, carrot, grated kohlrabi, water chestnuts, and green onions (and the currants, if using - they add nice little surprising bits of sweetness to the slaw!) together in a bowl.
  • Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Cover, and refrigerate until chilled and ready to serve; garnish with sesame seeds.
  • Makes about 6 cups, serving 6 to 8.
  • Note: you can also make the slaw without wilting the cabbage/carrot in the 1 tsp of salt - it's up to you. You might try it both ways to see which you prefer.

CONFETTI SLAW WITH SPICY PEANUT DRESSING



Confetti Slaw with Spicy Peanut Dressing image

Chris Kimball, author of "The Yellow Farmhouse Cookbook," prepares this unusual coleslaw with spicy peanut dressing to accompany his crispy, crunchy fried chicken.After chopping the cabbage, Chris sprinkles it with a teaspoon of salt and lets it sit for a few hours to draw out the excess water. Unsalted cabbage will leech water into the dressing, making the slaw overly wet and separating the dressing from the greens.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 medium head green cabbage, (about 2 pounds), cored and shredded
1/2 medium head red cabbage, (about 1 pound) , cored and shredded
2 medium carrots, peeled and shredded
1 red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded, and thinly sliced
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 small red onion, finely chopped (1 Cup)
1 Granny Smith apple, cored and shredded
2 garlic cloves, very finely chopped
1 to 2 teaspoons crushed red-pepper flakes
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup beer
1/4 cup light-brown sugar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, plus more to taste
1 tablespoon malt, cider, or distilled white vinegar, plus more to taste
1 cup dry roasted peanuts
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a large bowl combine green and red cabbage, carrots, red bell pepper, scallions, red onion, apple, garlic, and red-pepper flakes. Toss to combine. In a second medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, beer, sugar, lemon juice, and vinegar. Mix well. Stir into the vegetable mixture along with peanuts. Season with salt and pepper. Add lemon juice and vinegar, to taste.

Tips:

  • For a spicier slaw, use more chili peppers or add a pinch of cayenne pepper. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the chili peppers altogether.
  • To make the slaw ahead of time, prepare it as directed and then refrigerate for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, bring to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
  • This slaw is also a great way to use up leftover vegetables. If you have some leftover cabbage, carrots, or bell peppers, just add them to the slaw.
  • If you don't have any peanut butter, you can use another type of nut butter, such as almond butter or cashew butter.
  • For a vegan version of this slaw, use a vegan mayonnaise or yogurt.

Conclusion:

This spicy peanut slaw is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give this spicy peanut slaw a try.
