Instructions
- Very thinly slice the cabbage, shred the carrots, and slice the green onions into a large bowl.
- Whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, neutral oil, sugar, ginger, and garlic.
- Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat.
- Let the salad sit 15-30 minutes before serving so it softens slightly and takes on the dressing.
- Toss with the sesame seeds just before serving.
Notes
- Keep this one acidic and crisp - it is meant to cut through the fried chicken and BBQ sauce rather than be another heavy side. Add a splash more rice vinegar if it tastes flat.
- Use tamari instead of soy sauce to keep the salad gluten-free.
- Dress no more than about an hour ahead at scale, or the cabbage weeps and goes limp.
- Nutrition is a rough estimate - verify and adjust.
