Ingredients

Dressing

  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped gingerroot
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

Salad

  • 4 cups thinly sliced Chinese (napa) cabbage
  • 1 cup halved fresh snow pea pods (about 4 oz.)
  • 1/2 medium cucumber, quartered lengthwise, sliced
  • 1/2 medium red bell pepper, coarsely chopped

Steps

  • 1
    In small bowl, combine all dressing ingredients; blend well.
  • 2
    In large serving bowl, combine all salad ingredients; mix well. Just before serving, pour dressing over salad; toss gently to coat.

  • To thinly slice Chinese cabbage, wash it and place on a cutting board. Beginning at the green end, use a sharp knife to cut across the head, producing thin shreds.
  • To give cucumber slices a decorative scalloped edge, start with a whole, unpeeled cucumber. Use the tines of a fork to make lengthwise ridges from end to end of cucumber. Rotate the cucumber and keep marking it until the entire peel is scored. Cut and slice scored cucumber.
  • Assemble salad ingredients in serving bowl; cover with a damp paper towel and plastic wrap. Place dressing in jar with tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate salad and dressing separately. Just before serving, toss salad with dressing.
