How to cook deliciously - Chinese Coleslaw

1. Stage

Toss the cabbage, carrots, green onions, water chestnuts and sesame seeds to combine. Editor's Tip: To core the cabbage, cut the cabbage lengthwise into quarters. Make diagonal cuts on both sides of the stems to remove the core.

2. Stage

In a small bowl, whisk the vegetable oil, sesame oil, sugar, cilantro, salt, pepper, ground ginger, vinegar and soy sauce. Editor's Tip: Make a double batch and store it in an airtight container like a mason jar to use another time. Shake it well before using.

3. Stage

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to coat.

4. Stage

Cover and refrigerate the coleslaw for two hours. Toss it again before serving it. Editor's Tip: Letting the coleslaw sit allows the flavors to meld. It's still great served immediately if you're short on time. If you made extra, add a bit more dressing if desired.
