Asian Cabbage Salad

Napa cabbages at We GrowHere is our twist on the Asian Cabbage Salad recipe we were given in the Gelhaus family cookbook. The original recipe calls for a package of ramen noodles along with the chicken seasoning packet being used in the dressing. We sub rice noodles and skip the bouillon packet. Do your thing!

Ingredients:

  • 4 to 8 oz rice noodles (size of your choice, we prefer low mein size broken in short pieces)
  • 1 large napa cabbage 2-3 lbs, coursely chopped or shredded
  • 1/2 red onion or 1/2 cup chives or some ramps
  • 2 Tablespoons sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup + 1 Tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 3 Tablespoons honey or sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons oil (we tend to use sunflower or avocado oil)
  • 1 Tablespoon sesame oil (toasted is tasty!)
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds (or more)

Directions:

Soften noodles according to instructions. Meanwhile mix together oil + vinegar + honey dressing. Combine noodles (let dry as much as possible) and dressing. In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients (except almonds) and toss. Cover and chill slightly before serving. Add almonds immediately before serving.
