Asian/Oriental Coleslaw/Salad

The thing is, recipes are more like general ideas to me than directions, but with that in mind, the salad is very simple and the recipe is easy.

Mix one bag shredded cabbage with one bag of broccoli slaw. Then coat with dressing and serve. The trick is the dressing.

Dressing (I have no idea on amounts, so taste as you go.)

Vinegar (Rice Wine is best, just white if not, Balsamic is too strong)
Corn Oil (Not a lot or salad is greasy!)
Soy Sauce
Sugar
1/4 Bottle sesame Seeds (Toasted in pan first... Cover bottom of dry fry pan with black and white seeds and swirl until they begin to toast/pop/brown then add to dressing right before serving)
1 Vidalia/Sweet/Red Onion sliced thinly
2 Packets Top Ramen Oriental Seasoning Packets

Mix it up (except the sesame seeds) and let sit overnight.

Right before serving, toss it all together (also can break up noodles from Ramen and toss those in too, but I didn't at Bea's party) (If the dressing pools in bottom of bowl, pour out excess and save for another time rather than letting the stuff sit in it and get too soggy)

Rarely have any leftovers.

Good Stuff
