Napa Cabbage in Spicy Vinaigrette

October 28, 2006 by Benjamin and Koshiki Leave a Comment

I really love this dish. It’s tangy and refreshing – especially good during the summer. Best of all, it’s really simple and the preparation is forgiving (precision isn’t all that necessary here).

For the spicy vinaigrette:

  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 cup rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1/4 cup sake
  • 1-2 tablespoon chili paste
  • dash of seseame oil
  • dash of light sesame
For the salad:
  • 1 Napa cabbage washed and cut into 1 1/2 inch strips
  • Sesame oil
Directions:
  1. Heat sesame oil in medium sized skillet.
  2. Saute cabbage for several minutes under medium high heat. Cabbage should be cook and slightly crisp.
  3. Add cabage to vinaigrette and chill.
  4. Served chilled and garnish with sesame seeds or shichimi.
