Notes

  • We have a confession. Author Rebecca Lang calls for Napa cabbage in her original version of this lime coleslaw recipe, but we pulled a switcheroo and decided to use green cabbage instead. We chose it because it tends to withstand being smothered in dressing without getting soggy. Green cabbage is easier to find sometimes, as well. However, you can go in the other direction and use Napa cabbage, if that's what pleases you. Red cabbage, aside from the color, is a terrific substitution because it's so close in taste. Finally, shredded Brussels sprouts are pretty great when made into coleslaw, too.
