SWEET, HOT MUSTARD SLAW



Sweet, Hot Mustard Slaw image

I enjoy a wide variety of coleslaws, but this mustard slaw may be my fave. The combo of hot and sweet has a proven track record for pleasing palates. Salting and massaging your cabbage first (aka 'cassage') will help draw out water, which sweetens up the flavor, as well as produce a flexible, yet still crunchy texture, which I think is lacking in many other 'chop and mix' recipes. Garnished here with chives and chive blossoms.

RED HOT SLAW



Red Hot Slaw image

This is a fabulous wilted bacon cabbage slaw with a beautiful, bright color that is really delicious. (You can use green but the color isn't as vibrant, obviously.) Even our 3 year old loved it! And it is super easy with (probably) things you'd have in your kitchen. Easy and wonderful presentation AND delicious.

Categories     Greens

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small red cabbage, thinly shredded
4 slices lean bacon, diced
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons sugar
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/3 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the cabbage in a large/wide heatproof serving bowl. It makes it easier to toss all the shredded cabbage.
  • In a skillet, cook the bacon over moderate heat for 5 minutes or until crisp. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to paper towels to drain, then toss with the cabbage.
  • Discard all but around 3 tablespoons of the fat from the skillet. Add the onion and saute for 5 minutes or until soft. Sprinkle the sugar over the top and cook 2 minutes longer or until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the vinegar and bring to a boil.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with the water until smooth. Stir this mixture in to the skillet along with the salt and pepper. Return to a boil and cook 1 minute longer. Pour the mixture over the cabbage and toss well.
  • Cabbage should have a bright magenta color.

HOT AND SOUR SLAW



Hot and Sour Slaw image

Bok choy is in the cabbage family, and is very popular in China. In this recipe, it is shredded to resemble a coleslaw, but that is where the resemblance to that creamy classic ends. This dish is very spicy and full of flavor. It not only tastes great, but is strangely fun to eat. If you have chile paste, use 2 teaspoons of that instead of the red pepper flakes.
