Questions

What can I use instead of maple syrup in Crunchy Cabbage Slaw?

The entry for Crunchy Cabbage Slaw calls for 2 tsp maple syrup. In its place: Honey, measure for measure, or brown sugar dissolved in a little warm water.

Is Crunchy Cabbage Slaw gluten-free?

Yes. As written, nothing in the ingredient list for Crunchy Cabbage Slaw is wheat, barley or rye. Gluten hides in packaged goods, so read the label on the tamari.

Does Crunchy Cabbage Slaw contain peanuts?

Yes: 1/4 cup peanuts, chopped. The full allergen list for this entry is peanuts, soy and sesame. Where the peanuts are a garnish, toasted sunflower or pumpkin seeds give the same crunch. Packaged ingredients vary by brand, so check labels if the allergy is serious.

How many carbs are in Crunchy Cabbage Slaw?

One serving (the recipe makes 4) has 11 g of carbohydrate in about 140 calories, with 4 g protein and 10 g fat, plus 3 g fiber and 360 mg sodium. The figures are estimates computed from the ingredient list.

How do I store and reheat Crunchy Cabbage Slaw?

The base of Crunchy Cabbage Slaw is green cabbage, which holds up: it keeps three to four days refrigerated and tastes better after a few hours, once the dressing has soaked in. Hold back a spoonful of dressing to freshen it before serving. Add the peanuts at the table so it stays crisp. It does not freeze.
