Directions:

In a glass bowl, mix mayo, rice vinegar, and yuzu juice. Add a pinch of salt and set aside.

Using a sharp knife, finely shred both cabbages and put in a large glass bowl. Dice the green onion, julienne the radish and add both to the bowl. Chop the cilantro, stems and all, and add to the mix.

Toss the slaw mix with the dressing, coating all of the ingredients, and add in the toasted pepitas. You can add celery seed for added crunch, and red serrano pepper for a little kick.

Chill for 30 minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and enjoy!

Kids Can Cook Tips: Younger kids can help measure the ingredients and toss the salad. Older kids with knife skills can help shred the cabbages and chop the green onions, cilantro, and peppers.
