• 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

Cooking instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame seeds until the honey dissolves. (about 3 min)
2. Thinly slice the green cabbage, red cabbage, and scallions. Cut the carrots into thin matchsticks or shred them. (about 12 min)
3. Add the vegetables to a large bowl and pour the dressing over them. Toss thoroughly until the cabbage is evenly coated. (about 3 min)
