Examples of SLAW in a Sentence

  1. Hugh Mangum:

    The irony for me is meat is the normal star of the show, but I like all of the sides, fixings and vegetables, roast some vegetables, of course, but make sure you have a great slaw and innovate a little bit. Maybe do some slaws with some new flavors : soy sauce, fish sauce and brighten everything up with a lot of acids like citrus to match with the fats and to pair well with your beer.
