This colorful cole slaw recipe uses two different types of cabbage–red and savoy–along with kohlrabi in the mix.  It gets its summer kick (...read heat) from the addition of chipotle adobado chiles and adobo sauce.

2 teaspoons Adobo sauce
Kosher salt

*Epicurean Tip: Choose Your Crunch!
The cabbage can be dressed sooner and set aside. You will lose the crunch of the vegetables, but it will become more infused with the dressing.
