Julienne And Other Knife Cuts
A julienne cut makes thin strips that resemble matchsticks, also known as a French cut. You’ll be making a julienne cut to some of the ingredients in this recipe, and it’s very simple. The most important rule is to make sure all your cuts are equal in size. Whenever you are directed to chop, dice, or mince any ingredients in a Carb Manager recipe, the same rules apply.
What Makes A Reuben?
The Reuben sandwich was invented in the early 1900s in a Jewish deli. A classic Reuben sandwich includes corned beef, sauerkraut, swiss cheese, Russian or thousand island dressing, and marble rye bread. Russian dressing usually includes horseradish, which can be a little spicy, so thousand island dressing is sometimes substituted. This recipe just omits the rye bread!

Step 1
For the corned beef, you may choose any brand you prefer. You may also substitute corned beef with pastrami - whichever is more available to you. Choose sliced swiss cheese that you can cut as described (slicing from a block will be a lot more time-consuming). As for the coleslaw mix, choose any brand of standard coleslaw mix that contains a blend of green cabbage with red cabbage and carrots.Step 2
Slice the corned beef and swiss cheese in julienne pieces. If you are unfamiliar with this type of cut, you can refer to the top of the recipe for more information. You want these pieces to be similar in size and length to the cabbage in your coleslaw mix. Combine all three ingredients in a large mixing bowl, and toss them with salt, pepper, caraway seed, and celery seed.Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, ketchup, lemon juice, worcestershire, horseradish, onion powder, and minced pickles. Taste the dressing and adjust any flavor as you see fit. Then, toss the dressing with the coleslaw in the larger bowl. You may eat the coleslaw immediately, or you can cover the bowl and let it marinate in your refrigerator to eat later that day.
