This week has been c-r-a-z-y. My back is killing me – My 18-year-old is stressing over high school graduation, college, & life in general; my middle child thinks nobody cares about her and my son Nathan is all over the place. I’m always questioning my competence as a parent and adult in general and some days I think my guardian angel is drunk. Murphy’s Law has been in full effect over here. Have you ever had one of those days?

No More Soggy Slaw!

Warning: This takes extra time. Skip it if you’ve waited until the last minute and you’re in an emergency slaw situation. Otherwise, take a look!

Here’s how to eliminate saggy slaw syndrome from your life: Salt the cabbage ahead!

Anytime you dress a salad the contents of that dressing will always break down the cell walls of your cabbage. Also Known As: That thing when you have the perfect salad & you let it sit for a couple of minutes & it turns into a watery, mushy disaster.

Adding salt + a wilting window of an hour or so = crispy dry cabbage that won’t water your dressing down!

Remove the outer leaves & rinse with cold water.

Cut the cabbage in half & then cut that half in ½. Throw away the core.

On a cutting board julienne the cabbage by hand or with a mandoline.

Salt the cabbage & put it in the fridge for 1-4 hours. (This extra step is worth it if you have time – refrigerating the cabbage releases moisture & will result in a less soggy slaw!)

Rinse cabbage again with cold water & pat it dry with a paper towel or dry it in a salad spinner for 30 seconds.
