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.

1 medium head bok choy, shredded

1 tablespoon white sugar

  • In a smaller bowl, whisk together red pepper flakes (or chile paste), mustard, apple cider vinegar, garlic, ginger, sugar, salt, and oil.
  • Pour this spicy dressing over the chopped vegetables, and toss well. Refrigerate for 1 hour, then toss again. Taste salad, and add more chile paste, salt, or sugar to taste before serving.

HOT SLAW A LA GREYHOUND GRILL



Hot Slaw a la Greyhound Grill image

A tangy side dish of sautéed cabbage and bacon from the Lee Bros. Southern Cookbook.

Provided by Matt Lee

Categories     Cabbage     Bacon     Side     Grill/Barbecue     Paleo     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

One 3-pound red cabbage, cored and coarsely shredded, or a mix of red and green cabbages (10-12 cups)
1/4 pound slab bacon or 4 slices thick-cut bacon, diced
1/2 cup white vinegar, cider vinegar, or white wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Pepper vinegar to taste

Steps:

  • In an 8-quart stockpot, bring 4 quarts water to a boil over high heat. Blanch the cabbage by submerging it in the boiling water just until it turns a dull grayish purple, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander, shake the colander for a minute or so to remove excess water, and reserve.
  • Scatter the bacon in a 12-inch dry skillet over medium-high heat. With a wooden spoon, move the pieces around until the bacon is firm and barely crisp, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve.
  • Pour the vinegar into the skillet. It will hiss and pop at first but will soon subside. Swirl the vinegar around with the spoon, stirring up any browned bits of bacon. Add the celery seeds and red pepper flakes and stir.
  • Add the cabbage to the skillet and toss to coat it with the vinegar. Add the salt, pepper, and reserved bacon, and continue to sauté, stirring the cabbage around the pan until all its bright magenta glory has returned, about 4 minutes.
  • Place the slaw in a bowl and shake pepper vinegar over it to taste. Pass the cruet at the table for those who wish to fire it up further.

  • Make your own dressing: The dressing for hot slaw is typically made with mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, and mustard. You can adjust the ingredients to taste.
  • Cook the bacon until it is crispy: This will add flavor and texture to the slaw.
  • Serve the slaw warm or at room temperature: Hot slaw is best served warm or at room temperature, but it can also be served cold.
