Rainbow Slaw with Miso Dressing

by Trina Kaufman

Slaw is great for picnics and backyard barbecues because the sturdy ingredients hold up well. You can mix the slaw ingredients at home, pack in a large zip-top bag, and then toss with the dressing just before serving. Serve with pita bread and a side of hummus.

Ingredients

(serves 6)

Rainbow Slaw

  • 1 cup red cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup napa (or green) cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup carrot, shredded
  • 1 cup golden beet, shredded
  • 1 scallion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoon fresh cilantro

Miso Dressing

  • 1 tablespoon brown rice miso
  • 2 tablespoon apple juice or mirin
  • ½ tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • ½ tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar

Directions

  1. Toss all slaw ingredients together in a large bowl.

  2. In an unbreakable container with lid, combine miso and apple juice; mash and whisk with a fork until miso is dissolved (tiny chunks will remain). Add oils and vinegar; whisk or shake until emulsified.

  3. Just before serving, toss slaw with dressing until evenly mixed.
