Recipe for Caraway Cabbage and Carrot Slaw


I saw a recipe recently for coleslaw that included caraway seeds.  I had a large bag of shredded cabbage and a fresh jar of caraway seeds and pulled this slaw together on a whim.  I like the added flavor from the caraway seeds.  I think toasting seeds and grains always ups the flavor so I toasted the caraway.  I also prefer cabbage very slightly wilted over raw.  Super easy, quick and tasty side dish.

Recipe for Slaw with Cabbage, Carrot, Apple and Tarragon



This slaw is another recipe born of the need to use up what came in my weekly produce delivery from Kula Fields.   In addition to getting fresh from the farm produce, I love the challenge of figuring out what to do with what shows up each week in the box.

I really enjoyed this just as written.  Mr. ELEB thought it was a bit “tangy” so next time I’ll probably mix a bit of honey into the dressing.  Let me know what you think.
