Instructions
  1. Add around 1/4 C of salt to the shredded cabbage and stir. Let sit for around 8 hours, stirring about every 1/2 hour to hour. The cabbage will get very wet and much less crispy. Add the shredded carrot after about 6 hours.
  2. Rinse and drain the cabbage and carrot mix thoroughly and put in a medium bowl.
  3. Mix the mayonnaise, vinegar and celery seed together, and add to the cabbage and carrot mix. Mix thoroughly, and salt and pepper to taste. Chill and serve.
Recipe Notes

Salting the cabbage before making the slaw eliminates the raw cabbage flavor.  Be sure to thoroughly rinse or it will be massively salty!  I suggest using a salad spinner to drain.

The original recipe calls for white wine vinegar, which is pretty good, but the apple cider vinegar is also really good, so either will work.

Instructions
  1. Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering. Add corn kernels, season to taste with salt, toss once or twice, and cook without moving until charred on one side, about 2 minutes. Toss corn, stir, and repeat until charred on second side, about 2 minutes longer. Continue tossing and charring until well charred all over, about 10 minutes total. Transfer to a large bowl.
  2. **If you use canned corn: Add 2 to 3 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil to a sauté pan. Pour in the canned corn. Cook over medium heat until the corn turns a light brown color. It will take about five minutes for the corn to brown.
  3. Don’t stir the corn more than once. It can be tempting to stir but roasted corn should sit in the pan to cook. If you must stir the corn, let it sit for three minutes, stir it once, then let it sit until a light brown.
  4. In a serving bowl, toss corn with mayo, cotija, lime juice, cilantro, and chili powder. Season generously with salt.
  5. Top with more cotija, cilantro, and a sprinkle of chile powder.
Recipe Notes

This is really good!  Be careful with the chili powder, it matures after it sits, so it may not taste like enough to start with, but give it a bit first.

Feta really does work equally well.

If you eat this right away, ti's really good.  But if you let is sit for half hour or more, the chili powder really matures, and is a bit overpowering.  I changed the chili powder from the original recipe from 1 Tbsp to 1/2 Tbsp (1 1/2 tsp), and then I would suggest sprinkling just a bit over top on your plate.  Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Wow, these are powerful!  It is listed as I made it, but I think next time I will use 1/2 the Old Bay Seasoning, and probably 1/2 the salt.

Also, I didn't use lemon zest, I used ~1/2 tsp of lemon juice.  Might have made it a bit juicier then it should have been.  So I think net time I'll try a little more bread crumbs, too.  No parsley, either.  And I didn't serve with lemon wedges, but you're welcome to.  🙂
