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!)

Categories     Vegetable

Time 25m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 cups shredded kale, stems removed (4 ounces)
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 cups shredded savoy cabbage
1 cup shredded purple cabbage
1 cup shredded carrot (2 medium)
3/4 cup packed finely snipped Italian parsley (flat-leaf)
1/3 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons sliced green onions (1)
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon snipped fresh tarragon or 1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon, crushed
1 teaspoon sugar
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup pepitas, toasted (pumpkin seeds)

Steps:

  • In an extra-large bowl combine the kale, salt, and olive oil. Using your hands, rub the kale to help soften it and brighten its color (personally, I.
  • prefer to steam it for a few mins). Rinse the kale in a colander under cool running water; drain well and return to the bowl. Add the savoy cabbage, purple cabbage, and carrots; toss to combine. Set slaw aside.
  • For the dressing, in a food processor or blender combine the parsley, mayonnaise, sour cream, green onion, vinegar, tarragon, sugar, and garlic. Cover and process or blend to combine.
  • Add the dressing to the vegetable mixture; toss to coat. Sprinkle pepitas over the salad.

Tips:

  • For a classic winter slaw, use a mix of shredded cabbage, carrots, and celery. You can also add other vegetables like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, or jicama.
  • To make a dressing, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, sugar, and salt. You can also add other ingredients like herbs, spices, or chopped nuts.
  • To assemble the slaw, simply combine the vegetables and dressing in a large bowl. Toss to coat and serve immediately.
  • For a healthier slaw, use a Greek yogurt-based dressing instead of mayonnaise. You can also use low-fat or non-fat mayonnaise.
  • To make a vegan slaw, use a plant-based mayonnaise or yogurt alternative. You can also use olive oil or avocado oil instead of mayonnaise.

Conclusion:

Winter slaw is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or main course. It's a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it's also a good source of fiber and vitamins. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a winter slaw recipe that everyone will love.
