Asian Style Coleslaw


16 oz package shredded coleslaw mix
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c lime juice
1/4 c canola oil
3 T brown sugar
2 T rice vinegar
2 T fresh ginger, finely grated
1 T sesame oil
12-15 grinds fresh black pepper, to taste
sesame seeds for garnish, optional

Wash coleslaw mix and spin dry. Place in large ceramic or glass bowl*. In jar with tight-fitting lid add remaining ingredients less sesame seeds. Shake well until sugar is melted. Pour dressing over coleslaw and toss to combine. Sprinkle with sesame seeds just prior to serving. Serves 4.

*Chef's Note: Since this recipe contains a large amount of lime juice, do not use an aluminum bowl to mix the salad or dressing as it will react with the acid in the juice and give the salad an off flavor.
