Lovely bright flavors! Served with Chinese food; guests all had seconds. This "slaw" won't keep, so dress it right before serving, and dress only what you'll eat. The shredded cabbage will last 2-3 more days on its own.
If eating all 4 cups of the slaw at once, I recommend tripling the dressing; specifically, double the oil and reduce the water. I added 1 tbsp honey to the dressing and added thinly sliced bits of orange to the salad. If I make again, I'll change up the oil in the dressing (maybe try a sesame or an avocado) and add thinly-sliced beets to the salad.
Added thinly sliced fennel & radishes, also orange sections. Topped with toasted sliced almonds.
Super tasty great with grilled fish or shrimp.
