..what exactly does this cabbage tastes like in raw form? I know some of you eat it....I believe I've had it cooked but I could mistake it for bok choy.
I want to buy it to make myself an Asian salad...is there another cabbage that can be substituted? And I don't like kimchi, so I won't be using it for that.
napa cabbage

Both are staples in Asian cuisine..
We almost always serve them cooked.

It has very little taste in my opinion.

Ahh ok. I see it in the produce section and doesn't look appealing. I'm gonna stick to regular and purple cabbage.
But now!....Should I make a peanut dressing? Or a vingarette....problem is I can't find a decent Asian vinagarette recipe...anyone got one? I love the ginger but not the siracha.
Cabbage. :yuk:
Cabbage rocks! A cabbage salad with a sweet dressing...or even boiling it and drizzle with butter...yum yum!

If you don't eat your greens, you don't get any pudding!!
I found this dressing:
1/3 cup canola oil
1 clove garlic
4 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp lime juice
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp sesame oil
Blend all ingredients in blender.
This sounds good to me, but I may throw some fresh ginger in there as well.

I'll toss a leafy salad because my husband likes it, but I like veggies hot.
There are other recipes that family or siracha and chilies. I prefer more sweet vinagarette, but tomeach their own.
I don't like crunchy noodles in my salad, maybe nuts.

Peanut butter is sold in Britain.
And has been for many years. Trust me on this.
I know but I only tried it recently! That's what I meant...
I loved peanut butter on toast and crackers as a kid. I can take it or leave it now.
On crackers? ac_umm
Yeah that could work! I'm loving crackers and cottage cheese at the minute...

I made this dressing. I added some fresh ginger...im gonna let it sit over night before I do some adjustments. It needs more ginger and possibly honey...but we shall see.
It very peanuty from the sesame oil. But got a nice taste.

We don't eat cold salad often in the winter, but that looks good.

I'll bet that does mix well.
It mixes really well...im nibbling it right now!
I got this craving for onions lately....really bizarre. I am marinating onions in vinegar and spices...and right now enjoying purple onion with my home made dressing...

Are you using it as a dip for something or on a leafy salad?
