Chriss Sweet And Sour Slaw With Apple And Fennel Recipes

CHRIS'S SWEET-AND-SOUR SLAW WITH APPLE AND FENNEL

Steps:

• Toss cabbage and 1 teaspoon salt in a colander or large mesh strainer set over a medium bowl. Let stand until cabbage wilts, 1 to 4 hours. Rinse cabbage under cold running water (or in large bowl of ice water if serving slaw immediately). Press, but do not squeeze, to drain; pat dry with paper towels. (Cabbage can be stored in a resealable plastic bag and refrigerated overnight.)
• Stir together onion, honey, vinegar, oil, mustard, and tarragon in a medium bowl; set dressing aside. Immediately toss cabbage, apple, and fennel in dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

FENNEL AND APPLE SLAW

Steps:

• To make the dressing, add the olive oil, vinegar, orange juice, honey mustard, salt and pepper to a mason jar. Cover and shake to emulsify. Set aside.
• Add the cabbage, sliced fennel, celery, celery leaves and apple to a serving bowl. Top with the dressing. Toss to coat the vegetables in the dressing.
• Garnish with the fennel fronds. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.

CREAMY CELERY ROOT, FENNEL AND APPLE SLAW

Steps:

• Combine the celery root, fennel, apple and lemon juice in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Toss everything together and set aside for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours. This not only tenderizes and marinates the vegetables so they become pliable but also stops them from turning brown.
• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, honey and mustard in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pour the dressing over the vegetable and toss well. Fold in the dried cranberries. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.
