Recipe: Red Cabbage Fennel Winter Slaw

Serves 4.

Note: Tart and spicy, this bright slaw dazzles with sweet-hot chopped candied ginger. Toss in carrots or celeriac or whatever winter vegetables you like best. This will keep several days in the refrigerator. The vinaigrette will stay fresh up to 2 weeks, so feel free to double the quantity to have on hand. From Beth Dooley.
