• I first fell in love with this cole slaw after eating at California Pizza Kitchen – trying their chicken potstickers for the first time, I noticed that they came accompanied by an interesting looking cole slaw studded with scallions.  One taste and I was hooked – the combination of sesame oil and peanut butter was a palate zinger.  I had to learn to make it myself.

    This recipe couldn’t be simpler – whisk a few ingredients together and toss with the cabbage and then let the tangle of goodness ruminate on its future awesomeness.  Not that cole slaw can think, but if it could, I imagine that’s what it’d be doing.  Thinking about how cool it is.
