Preparation

Step 1

Combine cider vinegar, vegetable oil, sugar, chopped garlic, grated ginger and crushed red pepper in a large bowl. Stir well until sugar has dissolved.

Pile shredded cabbage and grated carrots on top of dressing and toss until blended. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.

Kitchen Tips:
*Save time. If you're in a hurry, use a pre-made slaw mix.
*Tame it. Use less crushed red pepper. Start with 1/4 tsp. and move up from there.
*This salad is great rolled into wraps with grilled chicken, or omit the ginger, swap chili powder for the crushed red pepper and serve with tacos.
