Title: Oriental Cole Slaw
Categories: Home Cookin,
Yield: 4
2 c finely shredded napa
(Chinese) cabbage (8
ounces)
1/4 c chopped jicama
OR chopped water chestnuts
1/4 c chopped green bell pepper
1/4 cup coarsely shredded
carrot
---- Oriental Dressing----
3 tb rice vinegar or white
wine vinegar
2 ts sugar
2 ts toasted sesame seed
2 ts soy sauce
1 ts sesame oil
1/8 ts crushed red pepper
Mix dressing, then toss all ingredients, at least several hours
or even the day before, to let flavors meld.
This is a lovely salad, and it keeps very well - leftovers were
still good and crisp as long as a week after it was made. Chinese
cabbage does not wilt. I think it is just a little better made
with water chestnuts, but jicama is good, too.
