Asian Slaw with Ginger-Sesame Dressing

The Cuisinart

®

Mandoline makes homemade coleslaw possible.

Here is a delicious Asian-flavor-inspired version. This colorful side

dish goes beautifully with grilled fish or chicken.

Makes 8 to 10 servings

Dressing:
1

garlic clove, peeled

1

½-inch piece ginger, peeled

1

tablespoon natural-style peanut butter, chunky or creamy

1

tablespoon rice vinegar

2

tablespoons soy sauce (reduced-sodium works well)

1

tablespoon honey

2

tablespoons sesame oil (we recommend hot sesame oil,
but it may be a bit too spicy for some. If so, use half regular
sesame oil and half spicy)

Salad:
6

small to medium red radishes, trimmed

1

broccoli stalk (florets trimmed and reserved for another
use)

2

medium carrots, peeled and halved to fit the safety guard

2

medium stalks bok choy (greens trimmed and reserved for
another use)

½

small to medium green cabbage

¼

small to medium red cabbage

½

small radicchio

¼

cup chopped cilantro

1. Put the garlic and ginger in a Cuisinart

®

Food Processor fitted

with the metal blade. Process until finely chopped. Add the

peanut butter, rice vinegar, soy sauce and honey. Process until

fully combined. With the unit running, add the oil through the

drizzle hole in the feed tube and process until emulsified.

Reserve.

2. Adjust the runway of the Cuisinart

®

Mandoline to the upper

position and fit with the fine julienne blade set to the ¹∕

8

-inch

setting. Julienne the radishes and broccoli; reserve in a large

mixing bowl.

3. Remove the julienne blade and replace with the shredding blade

set to the ¹∕

16

-inch setting. Adjust the runway to the lower

position. Shred the carrots and reserve in a bowl with the

radishes and broccoli. Keeping the mandoline at the ¹∕

8

-inch

setting, slice the remaining vegetables (except cilantro) with the

straight edge blade and add to the mixing bowl with the other

vegetables. Add the chopped cilantro and toss – using tongs

works best – to fully combine. Right before serving, add the

reserved dressing and toss to fully coat. (NOTE: It is important

not to add dressing until immediately before serving, otherwise

the salad will not be as bright in color and vegetables will not be

as crisp.)
