Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage. This will help the slaw to absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
  • Add other vegetables to your slaw. Some popular additions include carrots, celery, bell peppers, and radishes.
  • Experiment with different dressings. A classic vinaigrette is always a good choice, but you can also try a creamy dressing, a yogurt-based dressing, or even a fruit-based dressing.
  • Let the slaw rest for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and the slaw to become more tender.
  • Serve Spanish slaw as a side dish or as a topping for tacos, burritos, or sandwiches.

Spanish slaw is a delicious and versatile salad that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With its bright flavors and colors, it's a perfect addition to any summer gathering. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and healthy side dish, give Spanish slaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
