How to Make Oriental Almond Ponzu Slaw

  1. **Prep the Vegetables:** In a large bowl, combine 8 cups shredded green cabbage, 1 cup diced daikon radish, and 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions.
  2. **Initial Soak:** Add 1/4 cup water and 2 tablespoons rice vinegar to the vegetables. Gently toss to coat.
  3. **Set Aside:** Let the vegetables sit for 10 minutes to soften slightly.
  4. **Make the Dressing:** In a separate small bowl, whisk together the following dressing ingredients: (Add specific dressing ingredient amounts here - e.g., 1/4 cup ponzu sauce, 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon slivered almonds).
  5. **Drain and Refresh:** Drain the vegetables in a colander to remove excess liquid. Return them to the large bowl.
  6. **Season:** Sprinkle 1 teaspoon celery seed and 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice over the vegetables.
  7. **Combine:** Add the prepared dressing to the vegetables and gently toss to coat evenly.
  8. **Chill:** Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This also helps the slaw maintain its crunch.
  9. **Serve:** Serve chilled as a side dish with your favorite protein – fish, chicken, or even hamburgers!
