Zesty Orange Cabbage Slaw with Horseradish

Zesty Orange Cabbage Slaw with Horseradish

If in doubt, make slaw. This is a motto in my kitchen because frankly, so many of my go-to dishes are enhanced by a good slaw. I put slaw on grain bowls, as a side to tofu or tempeh dishes, on tacos, on sandwiches and burgers, on a beautiful piece of pan-roasted fish. I love all the slaws - vinegar-based and mayo-based - sporting an array of flavors but this one is an extra special version I bring out when I want something more complicated and exciting. The orange and pomegranate syrup are lovely compliments to the horseradish and the mayonnaise is a backdrop to all the flavor rather than taking centerstage as is with some slaws. Enjoy!
