snappy crunchy coleslaw
recipe:
2 heaping cups chilled cabbage- ideally, some green and some purple- shredded thin
1 tart or sweet apple, peeled, julienned (I used this nifty julienne peeler)
1 smallish carrot, julienned
Half a smallish red onion, sliced thin
1/4 cup golden raisins- or dried cranberries
3-4 tablespoons light and grassy extra virgin olive oil, as needed
1 tablespoon Champagne vinegar or apple cider vinegar, to taste
1-2 teaspoons organic raw agave nectar, to taste
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
1/2 teaspoon dill
A small pinch of cumin
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
directions:
Toss the shredded cabbage, apple, carrot, red onion and golden raisins into a large bowl and stir to mix. Drizzle with the olive oil- enough to coat, but don't drown it.
Sprinkle with vinegar, agave nectar, caraway, dill, cumin, sea salt and pepper, to taste. Toss to coat.
Taste test- does it need more oil? More vinegar? A tad more caraway? Sea salt? Adjust the seasoning.
Serve immediately.
Makes 4 side servings.
