How to Cut Cabbage for Slaw

Just like a classic coleslaw recipe, cabbage should be cut nice and thin. It’s easy to do.

Slice a head cabbage in half and then cut each half so you have quarters. Use a knife to remove the core in a triangle fashion. Using a sharp knife, thinly slice in quarter-inch (or thinner) pieces going from right to left on a cutting board. If you are left-handed (like me :) ), move in the opposite direction.

You can use a food processor or a mandolin, but slicing with a sharp knife is quick and clean up is easier. Want to save a little time? Buy pre-made coleslaw mix or a broccoli slaw as the base.

How to Make Asian Slaw

This Asian cabbage salad is an easy recipe. You can easily adapt it to veggies you have on hand. I like to try to combine various colors and textures for a great salad. Wash and cut any veggies you add into thin strips. Simply toss with the dressing below or a homemade or store bought sesame ginger dressing. Garnish with sesame seeds, green onions or even fried wonton strips.
