INGREDIENT NOTES:
GREEN CABBAGE:
- We use this as the main component to gives crispy texture to the recipe. It stays crunchy after pickling and absorbs the dressing well. You may use Napa cabbage as per your preference.
RED BELL PEPPER:
- It adds juicy crunch and a mild sweet taste to the recipe. Bell pepper makes the salad fresh and colorful. Green bell peppers are a good alternative to use instead.
APPLE CIDER VINEGAR:
- This vinegar makes the classic tangy pickled taste. It makes the vegetables slightly soft and keeps them crispy. You may use white wine vinegar as an alternative.
MAPLE SYRUP:
- It gives a natural sweet taste to balance the vinegar and spice. Maple syrup provides pleasant depth of flavor to the slaw. Include agave syrup if you are not using maple syrup.
DIJON MUSTARD:
- This mustard gives gentle tanginess and binds the dressing components together. Whole-grain mustard is good to include as a replacement.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, wash all the vegetables, then dry them completely.
- Slice the cabbage, bell pepper, onion, and jalapeno.
- Then shred the carrots and put all the vegetables in the bowl.
- Whisk salt, rice vinegar, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, and black pepper in the small bowl.
- Mix the dressing with the vegetables and toss all the components well.
