With its long crinkled leaves, Napa cabbage is more delicate in flavor than green or red cabbage, making this slaw recipe unique. Rice-wine vinegar and hot chili oil are available in most supermarkets; white or red radish may be substituted if daikon is unavailable.

3 tablespoons canola oil
1 firm head Napa cabbage (about 1 pound)

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: Napa cabbage is the traditional choice for coleslaw, but you can also use green cabbage or a mix of both. Napa cabbage has a milder flavor and a more tender texture, while green cabbage is more crunchy and has a more peppery flavor.
  • Shred the cabbage thinly: This will help the coleslaw absorb the dressing more easily and make it easier to eat.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline: This will help you get even, thin slices of cabbage.
  • Don't overcrowd the coleslaw: If you're making a large batch, be sure to use a large bowl or container so that the coleslaw has room to breathe. Overcrowding will make the coleslaw soggy.
  • Let the coleslaw chill: This will help the flavors to meld and will make the coleslaw more refreshing.
  • Serve the coleslaw chilled: Coleslaw is best served cold, so be sure to chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Napa cabbage coleslaw is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any summer gathering. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. Whether you like it creamy or tangy, sweet or savory, there is a coleslaw recipe out there for you. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious side dish, give napa cabbage coleslaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
