This vibrant and crunchy cabbage salad is paired with a delightful honey-sesame dressing, making it a perfect side dish for any meal.
Combine the shredded cabbage, sliced scallions, and toasted sesame seeds in a large mixing bowl.
Toasting the sesame seeds enhances their nutty flavor, so don't skip this step.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the apple cider vinegar, honey, and salt. Gradually add the canola oil while whisking to create an emulsified dressing.
Adding the oil slowly while whisking ensures a smooth and well-blended dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss until everything is evenly coated.
Toss the salad gently to avoid bruising the cabbage.
Refrigerate the salad for at least 15 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Chilling the salad enhances the flavor and provides a refreshing crunch.
Serve the salad chilled as a side dish or a light meal. Enjoy!
Garnish with additional sesame seeds or a sprinkle of chopped herbs for an extra touch.
