Chef's Tips

For a creamier dressing, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to thin it out.

Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your spice preference.

Other vegetables that would be delicious in this slaw include shredded brussels sprouts, edamame, or snow peas.

Garnish with sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.
