Enrichment Data:
While Marie's® might not have shared the exact recipe for their Asian Sesame Coleslaw, I got your back by whipping up a sassier, equally delish version. This recipe puts a modern, crunchy spin on the traditional Asian sesame coleslaw. Now let's get cooking, shall we?
Hella Asian Coleslaw Recipe
Grab the following:
- 1 head of shredded napa cabbage (16 oz / 450g)
- 1 large carrot, grated so you don't bite into chunks
- 1 large red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips 'cause that looks cool
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions (scallions)
- 2 tablespoons black sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 1 clove of garlic, grated for extra oomph
- 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes (optional, if you're feelin' spicy)
- 2 tablespoons neutral oil (canola or grapeseed)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari for a gluten-free version
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon agave syrup
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil (optional, if you're feelin' fancy)
- Salt, for tastin'
- 1/2 cup roasted peanuts (optional, for crunch)
Prep Like a Boss:
- Remove any wilted outer leaves from the napa cabbage and slice in half lengthwise, then thinly slice. Rinse and dry well.
- Grate the carrot and thinly slice the red bell pepper. Trim the roots and bruised tops of the green onions, then slice them thinly on a bias. Soak them in ice water for about 10 minutes to reduce their pungency, then drain and pat dry.
- Layer the sesame seeds, chili flakes (if using), grated ginger, and garlic in a small bowl.
- Heat the neutral oil in a small saucepan over high heat until it shimmers. Pour this hot oil over the garlic-ginger mixture and let it sizzle for one minute.
- Stir in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, agave syrup, and toasted sesame oil (if using).
- Combine the shredded cabbage, grated carrot, red bell pepper strips, and drained scallions in a large serving bowl, seasoned with a pinch of salt. Toss it around.
- Fold in the seasoned dressing by pouring it over the vegetables and tossing gently.
- If using peanuts, sprinkle them on top and toss again. Taste it and adjust seasonings as needed.
Servin' Size:
- Serves 4-6 folks
Tips:
- Optional Additions: You can add ingredients like edamame (cooked and seasoned) or roasted sunflower seeds if you prefer.
- Customize: For a less peanut-forward salad, use fewer peanuts or substitute with more sesame seeds or sunflower seeds.
- Gluten-Free Option: Use tamari instead of soy sauce to keep the dish gluten-free.
