Title: Oriental Cole Slaw
Categories: Home cookin
Yield: 4 Servings

2 c Finely shredded napa
(Chinese) cabbage (8
Ounces)
1/4 c Chopped jicama
OR chopped water chestnuts
1/4 c Chopped green bell pepper
1/4 c Coarsely shredded carrot

-----------------------------ORIENTAL DRESSING-----------------------------
3 tb Rice vinegar or white
Wine vinegar
2 ts Sugar
2 ts Toasted sesame seed
2 ts Soy sauce
1 ts Sesame oil
1/8 ts Crushed red pepper

Mix dressing, then toss all ingredients, at least several hours or even the
day before, to let flavors meld.

This is a lovely salad, and it keeps very well - leftovers were still good
and crisp as long as a week after it was made. Chinese cabbage does not
wilt. I think it is just a little better made with water chestnuts, but
jicama is good, too.
