Although my husband really liked this, I thought it was barely OK. The dressing was too thick and totally weighed down the delicate cabbage and veggies, kind of a gummy mess. The dressing did have great flavor but I think I might use it with stir fried green beans or other hearty vegetable.

Love the dressing minus the ginger (eeew ginger)- I tend to shred cabbage and the add to it green onions and whatever crunchy veggies I have on hand-- I sometimes marinate some chicken thighs in the dressing and broil them and top the salad with them-- really yummy addictive taste..

I am a big fan of Asian food. I could eat that style of food three or four times each week and sometimes do. But I've often wondered what sorts of salads might be appropriate as side dishes to the main courses that I enjoy so much. Hey! I just found one. I prepared Chow Mein Noodle Casserole, which can be found on the allrecipes website, with this recipe as a side dish and it was THE BOMB. Admittedly, this salad offers of somewhat exotic flavor, mainly because of the ginger, so it isn't one that will receive unanimous approval, but it is absolutely wonderful, in my opinion. Is rice vinegar the same as rice wine vinegar? I did not have rice wine vinegar, so I used 2 tbsp of rice wine vinegar and 4 tbsp of white wine vinegar instead. This is a world-class salad. Love it.

This recipe is quite a bit of work, and received mixed reviews from my church group of 50. It was very pretty but I got as many "didn't care for it" as I did "it was pretty good" - Won't do this one again.

I had such high hopes for this recipe, but sadly I did not care for it. The peanut butter was so overwhelming and the dressing was like a thick mess. It was a lot of work...sorry, I will not make this again.

This recipe was great. Even my children liked it! My husband especially loved it. It was a pleasantly different way to prepare coleslaw. I prepared and then served it beside the Asian Flank Steak recipe. They really went well together!

I was really excited to try this, but truthfully I was a little disappointed. After reading the reviews I was careful not to add the dressing until just before I served it and now I wish I had put the dressing on sooner as it was better after it sat for a while. Also, there were comments on too much dressing but I thought it wasn't enough dressing. The dressing flavor was very good and the salad was pretty, but I probably won't make this again. It was just "OK" when put all together and alot of work for just OK. Plus I have TON of leftovers!

Very Tasty & good for you! I halved the recipe but found the dressing too thick, so I added some sesame oil & a bit more canola oil until it got to the consistency I wanted. Also threw in some supermarket rotisserie chicken and voila - a wonderful light meal! Will definitely make this for my next party/potluck.

I added some Bean Threads to the salad just before serving to soak up some of the excess dressing.

I sustituted a bag of cole slaw mix for the cabbage. The sauce is overwhelming and will wilt the salad, so I'd suggest adding it to taste, per serving, just befor eating. I loved it. My friend sided with the 'overwhelming' for the sauce.

Great recipe. I used prepared coleslaw for ease (saves a lot of chopping)! We don't use peanut butter in this house, so I substituted all-natural almond butter. I used 5 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of chinese sesame oil instead of the vegetable oil. I garnished the top with some salted sunflower seeds. Sometimes I also top it with fresh cilantro if I have some on hand. One note, if you like your salad crisp and crunchy, do not add the dressing until just before serving! That is my preference. The dressing has so much flavour to it that the "marinating" that other reviewers talk about is totally unnecessary.

I made this because my husband is very picky about veggies and I figured the peanut butter would win him over. Just a note...go EASY on the dressing as a little goes a long way and can make three bites "enough" if there is too much on the salad mix. DH was not crazy about it and had only a few bites. I would add less PB next time. I liked the taste and will make it again. It also tastes like a sauce I had on soba/udon noodles at Big Bowl Restaraunt and would try it on noodles.

This was great! I served with steak and the flavor is incredible. Huge hit for the entire family. I would clearly do this again. I lightened up on the garlic and put a little more ginger in.
