Warm Shiitake Slaw Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook, stirring often, until rendered and crisp, about 6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• Increase the heat to medium high and add the Brussels sprouts, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until bright green and slightly wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and drizzle in the vinegar; toss well to coat. Transfer to a bowl and top with the pancetta.

Steps:

• For the smoky tahini dressing: In a blender, blend together the tahini, lemon juice, paprika, cumin, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 cup cold water until creamy.
• For the sesame rice: Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, add the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, until al dente, about 15 minutes; drain. Stir in the sesame seeds and sesame oil.
• For the warm Brussels sprout-shiitake slaw: Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining tablespoon olive oil, Brussels sprouts and the date; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Divide the rice among 4 serving bowls, and top each with some of the warm Brussels sprouts-slaw and tahini dressing.

• Repeat until all bacon is chopped.
• Set bacon bits aside.
• Start with a Gallon container with a large mouth.
• Add sugar, vinegar, water, oil, salt, garlic.
• Stir with a large mixing spoon, making sure you get all the sugar off the bottom of the container.
• Heat the amount of dressing you plan on using on the stove on low heat or a steam table, stopping short of a boil (you will use 4-6 oz per serving).
• Fill salad bowls with shredded cabbage.
• Sprinkle about 2 tbsp of the fresh bacon bits on top of cabbage. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
