Salty Sweet And Summery Spinach And Savoy Cabbage Slaw Recipes

SPINACH AND CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• In large bowl, toss all salad ingredients. Refrigerate at least 15 minutes to blend flavors.

WARM SAVOY CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• Coat a large wide pot with olive oil and add the bacon. Render the bacon over medium heat. Add the red onions, season with salt, and sweat for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the carrots and stir to combine. Add the cabbage, cider vinegar, mustard seeds, thyme and bay leaves. Season with salt and taste. This will taste very vinegary but the salt will help offset the sharpness of the vinegar.
• Reduce to a simmer, cover and cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until the cabbage is very soft. Remove the lid, add the apple cider and simmer for an additional 10 minutes or until most of the vinegar has absorbed but the cabbage is still moist but not soupy. Serve right away or let it hang out in the refrigerator. It will probably be better in a couple of days. Garnish with chives.

SAVOY CABBAGE SLAW

Steps:

• Quarter and core cabbage, reserving outer leaves for presentation. Roughly chop cabbage and rinse in a salad spinner.
• Transfer cabbage to a large bowl. Add carrots and red onion.
• Mix together mayonnaise, balsamic vinegar, sugar, salt, and white pepper. Pour over the slaw mixture and mix until well combined. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours.
• Arrange reserved cabbage leaves on a platter with chilled slaw on top.

SAVOY CABBAGE SLAW WITH APPLESAUCE VINAIGRETTE AND MUSTARD SEEDS

Steps:

• Put cabbage in a large bowl. Using the shredding blade of a food processor or a box grater, shred radishes until you have 1 cup. Add to bowl.
• Core apples and shred in food processor or with box grater until you have 2 cups. Put shredded apple into a bowl filled with lemon juice and 2 cups water, to prevent apple from browning.
• When ready to serve, gently squeeze water from apple, add to cabbage and toss slaw with vinaigrette. Add mustard seeds and toss again. Sprinkle walnuts on top of slaw. Season with salt and pepper.

SALT-AND-SQUEEZE SLAW

Steps:

• Combine vegetables and onion in a medium bowl; season generously with salt. Let sit until they start to release their water, 8-10 minutes, then begin to massage, gently at first so they don't break, then harder as they begin to expel their liquid, until softened to about the texture of coleslaw. Pour off all excess liquid and add vinegar and oil; toss to coat. Taste and season with more salt if needed.
• Do Ahead: Slaw can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.
