DAZZLING WINTER SLAW - RED CABBAGE, APPLE AND PECAN SALAD



Dazzling Winter Slaw - Red Cabbage, Apple and Pecan Salad image

A dazzling coleslaw salad for your winter festive table. Red cabbage is mixed with apples, carrots, pecans and onions which is then dressed with a tangy mustard and nut vinaigrette - fabulous! Plus, the colours as well as the taste, is amazing! This goes so well with cold cuts, pies, tarts, quiches, buffets as well as being a wonderful supper or light lunch accompaniment. I do all the shredding and grating in my food processor, it is so easy and cuts down on time. You can of course grate and shred by hand - it will just take a little longer! I sometimes add semi-dried cranberries and grated beetroot - these are listed as optional exras. The pie shown in the photograph, is my Recipe #268117, which I often serve with this winter slaw salad - they make a wonderful combination. (This recipe was posted to our personal preferences - with a light dressing and not a creamy or heavy dressing; if you like your salads with more dressing - please adjust the dressing quantities up!)

CRISPY-SKIN SALMON PROVENCAL WITH CHARRED RED CABBAGE SALAD



Crispy-Skin Salmon Provencal with Charred Red Cabbage Salad image

Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Four 4-ounce skin-on salmon fillets
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 teaspoons dried herbes de Provence
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Charred Red Cabbage Salad, recipe follows
1/4 cup canned crispy fried onions
1/4 head red cabbage, stem intact, cut into thick slices
1/2 yellow onion, peeled, root end intact, cut into wedges
3 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup your favorite olives, pitted and halved
1 jarred roasted red pepper, julienned
1 orange, supreme (peel cut away and segments cut free from the pith) along with collected juices
1/2 lemon, juiced

Steps:

  • Brush 1 tablespoon Dijon all over the flesh side of each piece of salmon, then sprinkle each with salt, pepper and 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence.
  • Heat a large nonstick pan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and let it sizzle until the skin is golden brown and crispy, 6 to 7 minutes. Gently flip with a fish spatula. Add 1 tablespoon butter to the pan and let the salmon cook until the flesh is golden brown and the internal temperature is 130 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the lemon juice, then remove from the heat. Serve the salmon on top of the Charred Cabbage Salad. Spoon the lemon pan sauce over the salmon and garnish with the crispy onions.
  • Preheat the grill or a grill pan for cooking at high heat.
  • Drizzle the cabbage and onion liberally with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the cabbage and onion until the cabbage is slightly wilted and super charred and the onion is soft and charred, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and set aside to cool until cool enough to handle. Remove the stems of the cabbage and roughly chop the cabbage; transfer to a medium bowl. Roughly chop the onion and add to the bowl along with the olives, red pepper, orange segments and juice, lemon juice, olive oil and salt and pepper. Toss to combine and adjust seasoning if necessary.

1/2 small green cabbage, about 3/4 pound
1/2 small red cabbage, about 3/4 pound
1 tablespoon Dijon-style mustard
2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1 tablespoon oil, preferably walnut oil, although corn oil may be used

2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
Salt to taste, if desired
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Cut away and discard the core of both the green and red cabbage. Cut away the tough bottom or center portions of the outer leaves.

  • Meanwhile, bring enough water to the boil to cover the cabbage when it is added. Add the cabbage and bring to a full rolling boil. Drain immediately. Empty the cabbage into a clean towel or cheesecloth, and when it is cool enough to handle, press to extract as much liquid as possible. Add the cabbage to the mixing bowl with the sauce. Toss to blend. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CRUNCHY RED CABBAGE SLAW SALAD



Crunchy Red Cabbage Slaw Salad image

Another recipe that I collected with an eye to eating healthier. I think red cabbage is underused anyway. If you threw some cooked chicken in with this if you wanted a bit more substance in this light meal. You could also more than likely use light mayo to make it even lower in fat. This is from British TV cook Silvana Franco and was first published in the July 2006 issue of BBC Good Food Magazine.

2 cups red cabbage, finely shredded
2 cups green cabbage, finely shredded
1/2 cup carrot, shredded

Tips:

  • Use a combination of green and red cabbage for a more colorful salad.
  • Shred the cabbage thinly, about 1/4-inch thick, to allow the dressing to better coat the leaves.
  • Adding a tangy element like lemon juice or vinegar will balance the sweetness of the apples and carrots.
  • Use a mild-tasting oil like grapeseed or sunflower oil for the dressing, so as not to overpower the flavors of the cabbage and other vegetables.
  • Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste, and feel free to add additional herbs or spices like cumin, caraway seeds, or dill.
  • For added texture and crunch, consider adding walnuts, pecans, or sunflower seeds to the salad.
