Shogun Slaw image

Another recipe from "The Barbecue Bible!" by Steven Raichlen. It has an option of adding wasabi powder (mixed with water) to the dressing to give it a little bite, but if you don't want the heat, just leave it out.

Number Of Ingredients 16

FOR THE DRESSING:
2 tsp teaspoons wasabi, powder (optional)
2 tsp water (optional)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp ginger, fresh, minced, or more to taste
5 Tbsp rice vinegar, or more to taste
2 Tbsp sugar, or more to taste
1/2 tsp salt, or more to taste
1 Tbsp sesame oil, dark
2 Tbsp sesame seeds, black or toasted white sesame seeds
FOR THE SLAW:
3 c cabbage, thinly shredded napa (about 1/2 small head cabbage)
2 carrots, medium, peeled, shredded or julienned
1/2 red bell pepper, medium, stemmed, seeded and very thinly sliced
4 scallion, trimmed white part minced, green part thinly sliced lengthwise
1/2 c peas, snow, ends trimmed, strings removed, and pods cut into thin slivers

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare the dressing. Mix the wasabi and water (if using) in a small bowl and let stand for 5 minutes to form a thick paste. Add the garlic, ginger, 5 tablespoons vinegar, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk until the sugar dissolves. Whisk in the sesame oil and sesame seeds.
  • 2. Stir the cabbage, carrots, bell pepper, scallions, and snow peas. Toss to mix. The slaw tastes best served within 4 hours of preparing. Correct the seasoning, adding vinegar, sugar, or salt as necessary just before serving.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my slaw didn't turn out like the picture. It was too watery.

This slaw was a disappointment. It was bland and tasteless.

The cabbage was too tough. I think I'll use a different type of cabbage next time.

The dressing didn't emulsify properly, so the slaw was a bit oily.

This slaw is a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not usually a fan of coleslaw, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so light and refreshing, and the dressing is amazing.

This slaw was a hit at my last potluck! It's so refreshing and flavorful, with a nice crunch from the cabbage and carrots. The dressing is tangy and sweet, and it really brings all the flavors together.
