Chinese Cabbage Salad
YIELD Makes 6 servings
See Cooking Videos
Prepackaged shredded cabbage salad mix lends even more convenience to this sweet-tart salad. This is also a great make-ahead dish: as it refrigerates overnight, the cabbage softens slightly and the tangy flavors blend even more. Try a crisp Asian pear or juicy seedless red grapes in place of the apple.
INGREDIENTS
| 6 | tablespoons cider vinegar |
| 3 | tablespoons sugar |
| 1 | tablespoon dark sesame oil |
| 1 | teaspoon minced fresh ginger |
| 1 | large crisp red apple, diced |
| 1 | medium (1 to 1-1/4 pounds) head green cabbage or 1 bag (16 ounces) prepackaged shredded cabbage salad mix |
| 1/3 | cup golden raisins |
| 2 | green onions, thinly sliced |
| 2 | tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
| 1 | tablespoon toasted sesame seeds |
PREPARATION:
- Combine vinegar, sugar, oil and ginger in large bowl; stir until sugar dissolves. Stir in apple.
- Add cabbage, raisins, onions, cilantro and sesame seeds; gently stir until well combined.
Note
Store cabbage tightly wrapped in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. A one-pound cabbage will yield about 4 cups shredded cabbage.
