Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, add cabbage, dill and salt. Using tongs mix for about 2-3 minutes. Cabbage will shrink about in half as salt starts to break down its tissue.

Step 2

Add remaining ingredients and gently toss. I recommend to add tomatoes last after all tossing is done. Serve cold.

Tips and Warnings

  • Store: Coleslaw is best served within a few hours. It will be OK in a fridge for up to 24 hours.
  • Make ahead: If you want to make ahead, shred cabbage and chop veggies. Refrigerate separately. Then follow the recipe before serving.
  • *I highly recommend using a mandoline. Texture of the slaw will be so crispy and tender. Imagine hair angel pasta.
  • **White wine or red wine vinegar would work too.
  • ***Sesame oil adds that unrefined taste like from roasted sunflower seeds. You can replace it with more olive oil but I highly recommend to buy sesame oil. You will use it a lot in Asian cooking.
