Red Chile and Pecan Slaw
['32 ounces nonfat vegetable stock, divided', '2 tablespoons cornstarch', '1 teaspoon cumin seeds', '1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced', '1 clove garlic', '1/2 shallot, chopped', '1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro', '1/4 cup sweet Thai chile sauce, such as Mae Ploy', '1/4 cup apple cider (or rice wine) vinegar', '1/2 teaspoon ground cumin', '1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper', '1/4 cup pecan pieces', '1/2 teaspoon dark chili powder', '1 tablespoon olive oil', '1/4 pound red cabbage, shredded', '1/4 pound green cabbage, shredded', '1 small green bell pepper, cored, seeded and thinly sliced', '1 small red bell pepper, cored, seeded and thinly sliced', '1 small yellow bell pepper', 'cored', 'seeded and thinly sliced']
Stir 1/2 cup vegetable stock with cornstarch in a measuring cup until blended. Bring remaining 28 ounces stock to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer and slowly whisk in stock-cornstarch mixture. Stir rapidly until stock is the consistency of olive oil. (It should cling to the back of a spoon.) Cool to room temperature, skim off and discard any film on top. Place cumin seeds in a dry sauté pan over medium-high heat. Stir until aroma of seeds is released, about 1 minute.
Blend 1/4 cup stock in a blender with cumin seeds and remaining dressing ingredients until smooth. (Refrigerate or freeze leftover stock.) Heat oven to 350°F. Combine pecans, chili powder and oil in a mixing bowl; toss to coat pecans. Place nuts on a cookie sheet and roast until the aroma of the chili powder is released, 3 to 4 minutes. Combine dressing and slaw ingredients in a bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
