It helps coat the vegetables evenly, making each bite flavorful.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chinkiang vinegar: <\/strong>My go-to dressing for Chinese coleslaw, it adds an earthy umami along with acidity.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Soy sauce:<\/strong> It adds a savory umami and saltiness to the dish, pairing perfectly with Chinkiang vinegar and honey.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Honey: <\/strong>I like the taste of honey in my dressing, plus it\u2019s a healthier sweetener.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Toasted sesame oil: <\/strong>Different from the neutral oil, this one adds a rich nutty flavor. Only a small amount is used so it\u2019s not too overpowering.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Garlic and green onion:<\/strong> Both add aroma to the dish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"contentbox contentbox-beige mainsection notop nobot\">\r\n\t\t\t\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-chinkiang-vinegar\"><strong>Why Chinkiang vinegar?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>What makes the dressing so special is my secret ingredient &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/pantry\/rice-vinegar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Chinkiang vinegar<\/a>. It truly gives it that authentic Chinese flavor. Chinkiang vinegar is a type of Chinese vinegar made from different grains and aged until it becomes dark brown or even a deep black. The taste is malty, fermented, and a bit woody. It helps to think of it like a Chinese version of balsamic vinegar. It really adds that extra special essence to Chinese recipes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\t\t\r\n\t\t\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-salad-ingredients\">Salad ingredients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Purple cabbage: <\/strong>I like that it has a slightly peppery taste and is a bit sharper than green cabbage. When mixed with my vinegar-based sauce, you can taste the subtle sweetness which is very delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Carrot:<\/strong> A small amount makes the salad more appealing. Plus, it\u2019s full of antioxidants and I love this ingredient in my slaw for a healthy boost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Peanuts: <\/strong>A very common ingredient in Chinese salad, it adds nuttiness and crunch. See my list below for alternatives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cilantro:<\/strong> It balances the bold seasoning, creating a clean, herbal counterpoint, balancing saltiness and acidity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-ingredient-options\">Other ingredient options<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Green cabbage:<\/strong> I\u2019ve tried making this dish with green cabbage, and the result is great as well. It is less punchy than purple cabbage so I only use it when I\u2019ve run out of purple cabbage in the fridge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Napa cabbage<\/strong>: Softer and juicier than regular cabbage, adds a mild sweetness. But be careful, napa cabbage releases a lot of liquid after adding salt. I would salt it first, then drain all the liquid before mixing in the dressing. The salad also gets a little soggy if you don\u2019t serve it immediately.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cucumber<\/strong>: Refreshing and hydrating. It tastes awesome in the slaw, but like napa cabbage, it also releases a lot of liquid. It\u2019s best for short-term slaws.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Daikon or watermelon radish<\/strong>: Peppery bite and vibrant color. I would only use a small amount so it\u2019s not overpowering.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Mint<\/strong>: If you don\u2019t like cilantro, use this as a replacement. It adds cooling brightness, making it especially good for summer versions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cashews, walnuts, and pine nuts<\/strong>: They all work really well if you do not like peanuts.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Raisin: <\/strong>This is one of my favorite ingredients to boost my slaw, if I want to sweeten the dish even further with natural ingredients.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_2.jpg\" alt=\"Close-up of crunchy Chinese coleslaw with purple cabbage, carrots, peanuts, and herbs in soy-vinegar dressing.\" class=\"wp-image-44514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_2.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_2-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_2-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) calc(100vw - 40px), 728px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-make\">How to make<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Chinese coleslaw is super easy to put together. Especially if you use pre-packaged coleslaw mix, you further reduce the vegetable cutting time. But when possible, I highly recommend cutting your own vegetables. Vegetables retain their vitamins longer when uncut. Plus, you can control the texture of the salad by slicing the purple cabbage thicker or thinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To start, mix the purple cabbage and carrots with a little salt and rub thoroughly. Let it sit until the vegetables wither a little. This dramatically improves the texture and makes your slaw crunchy and crispy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_5.jpg\" alt=\"Shredded purple cabbage and carrots sprinkled with salt before mixing.\" class=\"wp-image-44517\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_5.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_5-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_5-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) calc(100vw - 40px), 728px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Mix the dressing ingredients together. If you like to emulsify the dressing, you can use a small blender for the liquid seasonings, then add the garlic and green onion later. I don\u2019t do this often because I usually like to let my coleslaw sit for a while before serving, and the dressing would separate if I made it too early.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_6.jpg\" alt=\"Soy-vinegar dressing with chopped garlic and green onion in a small bowl.\" class=\"wp-image-44518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_6.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_6-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_6-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) calc(100vw - 40px), 728px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, toss everything together. In the past, I usually leave out the peanuts and cilantro if I make this dish ahead of time and toss them in later. But after making this one so many times, I found that mixing everything together works just fine and the texture doesn\u2019t change that much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_7.jpg\" alt=\"Tossing Chinese coleslaw with chopsticks, mixing cabbage, carrots, cilantro, and crushed peanuts.\" class=\"wp-image-44519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_7.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_7-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/omnivorescookbook.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/251016_Chinese-Coleslaw_7-768x512.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) calc(100vw - 40px), 728px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-frequently-asked-questions\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"togglelist notop nobot\">\r\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"toggleitem\" id=\"faqitem-what-can-i-use-if-i-dont-have-chinkiang-vinegar\">\r\n\t\t\t\t<h3 tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-can-i-use-if-i-don-t-have-chinkiang-vinegar\">What can I use if I don\u2019t have Chinkiang vinegar?<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"togglereveal notop nobot\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\n\n<p>Replace it with rice vinegar instead.
