Asian Savoy Cabbage Salad

Saturday, July 30, 2011
This is my favorite Asian salad recipe, and is one that came with our CSA. All these vegetables were in season in late July, so you can find them at your local farmers market.

1 cup snap peas, shopped
4 cups green savoy cabbage, shredded
1/2 cup sliced almonds - or just chop some up yourself
1/4 cup chopped scallions (green onions)

Dressing:
1/4 Cup 1st cold pressed olive oil or sunflower oil
1/4 Cup rice or white wine vinegar
1 Tablespoon raw sugar
1 Tablespoon tamari or soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds (to toast simply use a skillet on low heat, stirring constantly until golden brown- do not leave them :)

Dressing: Mix together oil, vinegar, sugar, tamari, ginger, sesame oil, and crushed red pepper. Set aside

In a large bowl combine cabbage, peas and scallions. Mix dressing well; Pour over cabbage mixture. Toss lightly to coat. Top with toasted sesame seeds.
