And what do you know?
0:03
We're back in the guest house
0:05
where it all began (laughing).
0:08
In my lovely guest house.
0:09
It's a great, it's a great little house.
0:13
And the kitchen is perfect for dishes like this.
0:17
Today, we're gonna make a peppery coleslaw
0:19
with orange chili vinaigrette, super silly ingre-
0:23
Silly, super silly ingredients?
0:25
Super simple ingredients.
0:27
And the only thing we're gonna do is mix together
0:30
a bag of coleslaw and couple of peppers.
0:34
And in the Vitamix we're gonna blend together
0:38
a hot chili oil vinaigrette.
0:42
This is gonna be really tasty, really tart.
0:44
It's gonna have some kick.
0:45
And I think that you're gonna like it.
0:47
So let's get started.
0:48
We're going to use a precut, tri-colored coleslaw.
0:57
And to that, we're gonna add one red bell pepper
1:02
And I hope you like your coleslaw hot.
1:05
Coleslaws can be, you know, there's so
1:07
many different variations on them
1:10
and I've always really liked the standard
1:15
little sweet with mayonnaise coleslaw,
1:18
it's really, really good.
1:19
But it's fun to just do things different sometimes.
1:21
So if you've got a pepper lover in your house
1:24
or somebody who really likes spices, and I do.
1:27
This coleslaw would be perfect for you.
1:29
So we're gonna use a diced, half a diced
1:32
and seasoned, excuse me,
1:33
a half a diced and seeded jalapeno.
1:36
That's gonna add some kick.
1:37
And we got a poblano pepper, which I like them.
1:41
They're pretty mild, but they definitely have
1:44
a distinct flavor to 'em and this was a big poblano.
1:48
So I think I'm only gonna use
1:50
maybe half to a third of that.
1:53
And if I feel like that's not enough for me,
1:55
then I'll come back and add some more in.
1:57
But I think this is gonna be plenty spicy, plenty hot.
2:02
So I'm just gonna kind of blend together
2:06
our dry ingredients here.
2:10
We've got our dry ingredients together in the bowl
2:12
and now we're gonna make our hot oil,
2:15
our hot chili oil vinaigrette.
2:17
We're gonna start off with some orange juice.
2:28
Little bit of lime juice.
2:32
Those nice citrusy notes will just really add
2:37
to our coleslaw base.
2:39
Here we go, some pepper,
2:42
some salt, and some sugar,
2:45
everything that you would expect in the vinaigrette
2:49
and plus a little Dijon mustard.
2:55
Who likes coleslaw, everybody?
2:58
And plus just coming off of 4th of July.
3:01
So we're all in coleslaw mode right now.
3:04
I like coleslaw on a,
3:05
I don't eat 'em very often, but I like coleslaw
3:09
Gosh, we did so many of those when
3:10
I was a kid growing up in Albany.
3:12
Slaw dogs, and Paula Deen's slaw
3:15
on a good old grocery store hot dog was just amazing.
3:20
Alright, to that I'm gonna add some orange zest,
3:26
maybe about a half a teaspoon or so.
3:30
Big, beautiful, fresh orange.
3:32
Nothing like the smell of fresh zest.
3:39
Alright, and some hot chili oil.
3:43
Oof, that looks like a lot.
3:46
We shall see if it's a lot or not.
3:53
we'll get this going and I will slowly add to it
3:58
So we had to change locations, it was very funny.
4:00
I said how great a Vitamix is and wouldn't it be funny
4:03
if it didn't work when I went to turn it on?
4:05
And I turned it on and it didn't work,
4:06
but it was 'cause the outlet is not working.
4:09
So had to change locations on the Vitamix.
4:13
I'm gonna turn it on.
4:30
So our oil is mixed and,
4:36
let's add it to our beautiful coleslaw.
4:44
Let me just give it a little taste.
4:50
Oh man, ooh, (laughing) that's good.
4:56
It's got a hot finish though.
4:58
Ooh boy, that stays with you.
5:15
So that was, I used two tablespoons of hot chili oil.
5:19
If you like it milder, you might half that.
5:24
You might go one tablespoon, but boy has it got
5:26
a great flavor and it's got really,
5:32
well, it starts out sweet and then it finishes just warm.
5:39
And really, really good, really great flavors.
5:43
And look how pretty that cole slaw is.
5:44
That's a great color, that chili oil is
5:50
a wonderful reddish collar and it looks so, so so pretty.
6:03
'Cause the base tasted good.
6:08
Be good on a hot dog.
6:14
Mmm, (crunching) so good.
6:23
if you wanna shake your coleslaw up,
6:26
and do something a little bit different
6:28
make this peppery coleslaw with orange chili vinaigrette.
6:31
And I promise that you'll love it
6:33
especially if you like heat.
