Lemongrass Asian Coleslaw
Share
I love a recipe that wakes up your palate.
This Lemongrass Asian Coleslaw is bright, crunchy, and layered with flavor. The red cabbage gives it that beautiful pop of color, the cucumber keeps it cool and fresh, and the carrots add just a little sweetness.
But the real magic is in the dressing.
The combination of Thai Lemongrass-Mint White Balsamic Vinegar and Toasted Sesame Oil creates something really special. It’s tangy, slightly sweet, and full of depth. Add a touch of soy sauce and honey, and it all comes together in a way that feels balanced and refreshing.
This is the kind of slaw I serve next to grilled chicken, salmon, or even tucked into tacos. It holds up beautifully, and the flavors only get better as it chills.
Fresh. Crisp. And just a little unexpected.
