Cooking Notes
I added toasted sesame seeds in the recipe, and I think this did the whole difference.
I added cider vinegar & mango, used both red and green cabbage. The slaw was delicious.
I added a tablespoon of avocado oil but think toasted sesame would be even better. Delicious with or without the added oil.
Excellent, so quick and easy to make and delicious! Followed the recipe, with addition of toasted sesame seeds. Great zesty side with bacon, tomato, avocado, mayo sandwiches on toast with basil leaves in place of lettuce.
This recipe worked well, I got rave reviews from the eaters, and enjoyed it myself. Be careful to get the ginger sliced thinly. Next time I'll try with sesame seeds or peanuts.
Subbed red peppers and more carrots for red cabbage, since that's what I had. Very versatile: Also consider radishes or jicama, maybe other veggies. Just be sure the volume is the same or adjust up the amount of lime and ginger. Might add toasted wh or blk sesame seeds/gomasio next time. I served this alongside Silken Tofu with Spicy Soy Dressing (https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1022562-silken-tofu-with-spicy-soy-dressing), which has a bit of sugar and chili in the sauce. So tasty together!
Needed some sugar or sesame oil or similar. Too tart.
I added a half tap. of sesame oil and about a 1/4 tsp. of black cumin seeds. These ingredients added a nice touch to this salad.
Added toasted sesame oil, sesame seeds, splash of grape seed oil
Pretty boring. I added toasted sesame oil, honey and craisins.
Very bland. I added a jalapeño as well as some sesame oil, honey and Korean chili flakes. I think there are better options than this.
I added toasted sesame oil and it added an extra punch of flavor that made this great!
