Servings: 6

Ingredients

Cabbage
4 cups, thinly sliced
Carrots
2 cups, julienned or shredded
Green onions
1/2 cup, chopped
Gochujang
2 tablespoons
Rice vinegar
2 tablespoons
Sesame oil
1 tablespoon
Honey
1 tablespoon
Garlic
1 clove, minced
Salt
1/2 teaspoon
Black sesame seeds
1 tablespoon, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced cabbage, julienned carrots, and chopped green onions. Toss to mix the vegetables evenly.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the gochujang, rice vinegar, sesame oil, honey, minced garlic, and salt until smooth and well combined. This will create a spicy and tangy dressing.
  3. Pour the gochujang dressing over the cabbage mixture. Toss everything together until the vegetables are well coated with the dressing.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld together and the vegetables to soften slightly.
  5. Before serving, sprinkle the coleslaw with black sesame seeds for a nutty crunch and visual appeal.
