- Slice the napa cabbage in half lengthwise, then cut into thin ribbons about 1/4 inch wide.
- Slice the red cabbage as thinly as possible using a sharp knife or mandoline.

- Place sliced napa and red cabbage into a large bowl and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, tossing well to distribute.
- Allow the salted cabbage to rest for 5 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together rice vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce, minced ginger, minced garlic, honey, red pepper flakes, and lime juice until fully combined.
- Add carrots, green onions, cilantro, and crushed nuts to the cabbage in the large bowl.
- Pour the finished dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss vigorously for about 1 minute.
- Scatter toasted sesame seeds over the top of the finished slaw just before serving.
Notes
This slaw can be made ahead of time; keep the dressing separate until ready to serve to maintain crunchiness.
