Even in the winter when you have to buy the mint, this Thai-Style Cabbage Slaw is worth the splurge! |
Mint is something I have in abundance in the summer, and it's so prolific that I'm glad I have a garden bed divided into thirds so the mint is contained. Maybe it's because I have so much free mint in the summer, but I have a hard time buying mint at the grocery store, and I saved this recipe for Thai-Style Cabbage Slaw months ago, thinking I would try it in the summer when I had mint begging to be used. Then every time I looked through recipes I had saved, this one was calling to me, until finally I paid a ridiculous price for mint at the store and tried it. This was another of those recipes where Jake and I were absolutely raving the entire time we devoured four servings of this (and we had eaten lunch about 30 minutes earlier!)
