For an even finer slaw, consider using a mandoline to shred the cabbage. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preference. A pinch of black pepper also adds a nice touch. If you don't have Granny Smith apples, other crisp, tart apple varieties like Honeycrisp or Fuji work well. For a creamier slaw, add 1/4 cup of mayonnaise to the dressing. Reduce the amount of oil to 1 tablespoon This slaw is best enjoyed within 24 hours of making it.
