Tomatoes and oregano make it Italian; wine and tarragon make it French. Sour cream makes it Russian; lemon and cinnamon make it Greek. Soy sauce makes it Chinese; garlic makes it good. -Alice May Brock of Alices' Restaurant fame. Albiet no garlic in this recipe, but this is a refreshing alternative to mayonnaise-based coleslaw in a taco or on the side. To Make Ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Toss again to refresh just before serving. (Eating Well, June/July 2003)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup rice vinegar
