We are looking to find an answer for you, but many have left them out and it is still a delicious salad. You can try adding cucumbers or celery or toasted slivered almonds for crunch.
You probably will not be able to find canned water chestnuts. It’s funny that will all the Asian ingredients you can find in the supermarkets here, water chestnuts (and bamboo shoots) are not really available. You may be able to find frozen water chestnuts. In addition to Tamar’s suggestions for substitutions, you can try kohlrabi, which has a similar taste and texture.
this looks great. Where can you buy water chestnuts in Jerusalem
Hey Tziona you can use any brand Teriyaki sauce and just add sesame seeds or you can make your own teriyaki sauce with this recipe: 1/2C low-sodium soy sauce + 2TBS sugar (or 2TBS honey)+ 1/2tsp ground ginger
Agree it’s really pretty and feels nothing like the traditional deli coleslaw.
Mazel Tov! It’s one of the most requested recipes at my demos!
I made this salad for my cousins vordt tonite. It was a huge hit
I would love to make this salad but I live in Israel and was wondering what I could use as a substitute for Mikee sesame teriyaki sauce…
this is an amazing salad! i made it when i got bored of the the classic coleslaw recipe. it is delicious and the colors are beautiful so it looks great on the table!
