Note

For best flavor, use fresh ginger juice rather than bottled if possible.

This slaw can be prepared up to 2 hours in advance. Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container until ready to serve.

For added crunch and texture, consider adding toasted sesame seeds or chopped peanuts before serving.

If you prefer a sweeter dressing, add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
