I am not a fan of a traditional coleslaw, but a vinegar coleslaw – sign me up! The acidity and freshness of this salad is a great balance to a savory dish. This is quick and simple to make and gets better after sitting overnight in the fridge.
Packed with loads of ginger this slaw has great nutritional benefits! Ginger is full of inflammatory compounds, and direct anti-inflammatory effects. It composes many essential nutrients and vitamins such as vitamin B-6 and vitamin B-5.
