Serves/Makes:8 or more

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (125 ml) canola oil (corn or vegetable blends fine to use)
• 1 tbsp (15 ml) roasted sesame seed oil
• 1/2 cup (125 ml) white wine or cider vinegar
• 1/2 cup (125 ml) granulated sugar (to taste, more or less)
• 2 chicken ramen noodle seasoning packets from inside the Ramen Noodle Cellophane Packages (roast chicken has a flavor I especially like now that it is on the market)
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 large head green garden variety cabbage, medium to thinly shredded
• 1 small bunch green onions (scallions), sliced or chopped
• 2 3 oz (84 grm). packages chicken flavored ramen noodles, broken and crunched-up (you will have used the flavor packets for the dressing ingredient above)
• 1 cup (225 ml) raisins
• 1 cup (225 ml) salted toasted or raw sunflower seeds
• 1 cup (225 ml) sliced almonds

Preparation

• In a quart jar, place the canola oil, roasted sesame seed oil, vinegar, granulated sugar, the chicken ramen noodle seasoning packs, and the salt and pepper to taste.
• Shake them until the sugars and ramen packet seasonings dissolve, then set aside.
• In a very large mixing bowl, (or use a clean, unused medium sized white plastic garbage bag), place the cabbage, green onions, crunched-up ramen noodles, raisins, sunflower seeds, and sliced almonds, then toss gently to distribute and mix the ingredients.
• Next, shake the dressing one last time to blend it well and emulsify the ingredients a bit, then pour over the slaw mixture and blend-in the dressing well enough that everything is well coated, but not mauled.
• Place in a pretty bowl or serving container.
• Chill for at least an hour before serving.
• Best to make the day before, chill overnight, and toss gently just prior to serving.
