COLESLAW

This classic version of coleslaw is also the simplest, with a light, creamy, tangy-sweet dressing spiked with celery seeds. For the best result, make the coleslaw a few hours ahead and refrigerate it to allow all the flavors to marry and soak into the cabbage. Celery seeds add strong, aromatic, grassy notes, but simply skip them if they're unavailable. For extra flair, you could add ½ cup of your favorite chopped fresh herb, such as parsley, tarragon or dill. Leftovers make a great topping for tacos, hot dogs, sliders and sandwiches.

Time 10m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 medium head green cabbage (about 2 pounds)
1/2 medium head purple cabbage (about 1 pound)
2 carrots, grated on the large holes of a box grater

Steps:

  • In a very large bowl, combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and celery seeds. Season with salt and pepper, and mix until smooth.
  • Shred the cabbage: Using a sharp knife, quarter and core the green cabbage. Arrange quarters cut side down, so they sit flat and stable. Thinly slice them lengthwise for longer shreds (or crosswise for shorter shreds). Repeat with the purple cabbage. You should get about 16 total cups of shredded green and purple cabbage.
  • Add all the shredded cabbage and the shredded carrots to the bowl, season with salt and pepper, and toss until well combined. (Hands work best here.)
  • Transfer coleslaw to a serving bowl and serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate 3 hours ahead of time and up to overnight for the best texture, and serve chilled.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your coleslaw.
  • Shred the cabbage and carrots thinly. This will help them absorb the dressing better.
  • Don't overdress the coleslaw. You want the dressing to coat the cabbage and carrots, but you don't want it to be soggy.
  • Let the coleslaw chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the coleslaw as a side dish or on top of grilled chicken, fish, or tacos.

Conclusion:

Calypso coleslaw is a delicious and versatile side dish that is perfect for any occasion. With its sweet and tangy dressing, crunchy cabbage and carrots, and tropical fruit, it's sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and flavorful side dish, give Calypso coleslaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
