Ingredients

4 servings

For the salad

2 cups frozen shelled edamame
2 cups purple cabbage, thinly shredded
2 medium carrots, julienned or coarsely grated
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
Ingredient note
A serving of up to about half a cup of red bell pepper is low in fructose. This recipe contains only about 1/4 of a red bell pepper per serving, making it likely Low Fructose. If you prefer to always avoid red bell pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
¼ cup fresh cilantro, roughly chopped

For the dressing

3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Private Selection Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Bertolli Extra Virgin D'Italiia Olive Oil 16.9oz

2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp tamari
1 tbsp honey
Chef's tip
Use the same amount. Maple syrup is a little thinner and less sticky than honey.
1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
1 clove garlic, finely grated
¼ tsp red pepper flakes

For serving

2 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted
¼ cup dry-roasted almonds, roughly chopped (optional)

Instructions

1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the frozen edamame and cook for 3–4 minutes, until bright green and just tender. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water until cool to the touch.
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, sesame oil, rice vinegar, tamari, honey, grated ginger, grated garlic, and red pepper flakes until the dressing is smooth and emulsified.
