CRUNCHY PEANUT SLAW

Gotta love this crunchy cabbage slaw. It is super simple mix of cabbage, peanuts, and rice vinegar with oil. It's all in how you cut the cabbage: it should be light and feathery, delicate and yet satisfying at the same time. Modified from Apartment Therapy. LOVE IT!

Time 10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 medium head green cabbage, outer leaves removed
1 1/2 cups unsalted peanuts
2 bunches green onions
1 1/2 cups chopped cilantro
salt and pepper
1/2 cup light oil, like canola
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar (or more, to taste)
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon soy sauce (or more, to taste)

Steps:

  • Shred the cabbage very finely. The fineness of the shredded cabbage is really what makes this salad; you want it in in threads, almost, and with the threads chopped into bite-size lengths.
  • Toss with the peanuts in a large bowl.
  • Chop the green onions, including the green and white parts.
  • Toss the onions and chopped cilantro with the cabbage, seasoning very lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk the dressing until emulsified, then taste and adjust to your own preferences of sweetness and saltiness.
  • Toss with the cabbage. Garnish with a few more peanuts and serve.
