Warm Sesame Cabbage Salad With Soy and Scallions (Zip and Steam)

"Zip lock has come out with these great little steamer bags. I'm going to down load several of the recipes for safe keeping. The idea is that steamed vegetables and meat are supposed to be better for you, because there is very little added fat. I suppose you could also make this in a traditional steamer, however, the cook times may vary."

  1. 5 stars from DH. I added lots of extra "heat" for him too. I also added bean sprouts. I didn't have the steam bags (I prefer not to microwave in plastic...even though they say it is safe.) I used a glass dish with a cover, it was perfect. Thanks for posting!
     
  2. First time using this type of cabbage & I really liked it. Didn't use the microwave, just sauteed it on the stovetop & had to use a yellow onion as that's what I had. Very tasty.
     
  3. Love the taste, technique, healthiness, and colors! I did prepare this earlier in day and refrigerated. Thank you MsSally for sharing a repeater. Made for Everyday is a Holiday!
     
  4. Great side dish, and cleanup is a snap! Only thing I did differently was added a pinch of brown sugar to the dressing and substituted shallots for the scallions. Thanks for sharing!
     
  5. Hi MsSally, what a great dish and what a great invention by Ziplock! I just discovered the Zip'nSteam bags(living in a home we don't use those particular things)however, I went & shopped for these to make this. BTW, this dish is wonderful! I cooked it just as posted except for the addition of bacon, omitted the salt, & increased the amt of crushed red pepper flakes. We used Chinese cabbage and everyone who tasted it(mainly the whole kitchen staff) just kept ohing and ahing, thank you so much for posting, Diane :)

<p>First, I'd like thank everyone who reviews my recipes. I can't thank each of you personally although I try. <br /><br />I Live in central Virginia, 5 miles from where I grew up, w/ my Husband of 17 years and my beautiful daughter. She is 10 and is the joy of my life. We waited for a long time to be blessed with a child and it is the best thing I've ever done. Be a mother. <br /><br />I love to cook. We eat very healthy, after a life altering experience at 31 I've been on a journey to be healthy and lose weight.&nbsp; I've lost 50 lbs and have kept most all of it off for the last 9 years. There are always fluxs, durring stressful times, but I've mananged to keep most of the weight off.&nbsp; My best advice to anyone trying to lose weight is to remember that it didn't get there overnight and it won't come off overnight. I've never said I was on a diet. It is a lifestyle.</p> <p>When Zaar first changed to Food I took a short hiatus. I was going thru a very hard time in life and was completely unmotivated to do anything and thus gave up my hosting duties on Holiday Tag.&nbsp; But now with a new perspective I'm hoping to get back to cooking and tagging.</p> <p><br /><br />Things I've participated in..... <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg alt=/ /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt=/ /> <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/ParticipationBanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><a href=http://s10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/Football%20Pool%202008/?action=view?t=FootballPoolWk4.gif target=_blank><img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/Football%20Pool%202008/FootballPoolWk4.gif border=0 alt=Photobucket /></a> <br /><br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/pt-shutterbug-banner-1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <br /><br /><img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Kaffee-sticker.jpg alt=/ /><img src=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v204/derf16/food%20photography%20series/MuffinLovesticker.jpg alt=/ /><img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Other/photo-swap-7sticky.jpg alt=/ /> <img src=http://i132.photobucket.com/albums/q23/vseward/Bevy/officialmemberofthebevtaggame.jpg alt=/ /><img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/personal/FRENCH-foodfun.jpg alt=/ /><img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1956/holidaylightssticker.jpg alt=/ /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /><img src=/ alt= /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg border=0 alt=PAC /><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg border=0 alt=Photo /><img src=http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1535/cheesesticker.jpg alt=/ /> <br /><br />And in honor of my mother and in rememberence of my sister in law. <br /><img src=http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/TasteofYellow.jpg alt=/ /></p>
