CKD's Oriental Slaw

Two years ago today, here is what we were eating! Yum!!




Remember when we had Oriental Slaw at our cookout and I wasn't sure what the exact recipe was. Well, Tossie sent it to me and it was a recipe of CKD. Not only can she cook, but she can create incredible flower arrangements. Sister, CKD and their numerous "crew" members were responsible for my gorgeous flowers at our wedding. Here is a sampling of their work:

Here is her recipe sent in an email from Tossie:

You were close but with a few changes:

1 lb. package shredded cabbage

1 bunch green onions, chopped

2 pkgs. Ramen noodles, uncooked and discard the seasoning

1/4 c. sesame seeds

2 1/2 ounces sliced almonds (mine were slivered)

1/2 stick butter

Sauce:

3/4 c. oil

1/2 c. white vinegar

3/4 to 1 c. sugar (to taste)

2 T. soy sauce

Mix cabbage and onions and refrigerate. Mix Ramen noodles, sesame seeds and almonds, saute in butter stirring constantly. Drain on paper towels, cool and refrigerate. When ready to serve, mix cabbage, sauteed mixture and sauce.

Sauce - mix together and refrigerate.

This can be prepared ahead of time by storing cabbage, noodles and sauce in separate containers. Just mix and serve.
