How to Make Asian Slaw With Ginger Peanut Dressing
- **Whisk the Dressing:** In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, ginger, sesame oil, and minced garlic until smooth and creamy.
- **Prepare the Slaw:** In a large bowl, combine shredded red cabbage, shredded carrots, and sliced green onions.
- **Combine and Marinate:** Pour the dressing over the slaw and toss gently to coat evenly.
- **Rest and Serve:** Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the vegetables to soften slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning (adding more honey for sweetness, soy sauce for saltiness, or rice vinegar for tanginess) if needed.
- **Garnish and Enjoy:** Before serving, garnish with sesame seeds (optional). Serve chilled and enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
