**Coleslaw: A Refreshing and Versatile Summer Salad**
Coleslaw is a classic summer salad that is both refreshing and flavorful. It is typically made with shredded cabbage, carrots, and a mayonnaise-based dressing. However, there are many variations on the classic recipe, including versions with vinegar-based dressings, yogurt-based dressings, and even fruit-based dressings. In this article, we will provide recipes for three different types of coleslaw: Classic Coleslaw, Vinegar Coleslaw, and Asian Coleslaw.
*Classic Coleslaw* is the traditional recipe, made with shredded cabbage, carrots, and a mayonnaise-based dressing.
*Vinegar Coleslaw* is a lighter version of the classic recipe, made with a vinegar-based dressing instead of mayonnaise.
*Asian Coleslaw* is a flavorful variation on the classic recipe, made with a dressing that includes soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil.

Steps:
- Cut the cabbages in half and then in quarters and cut out the cores. Set up the food processor with the slicing blade (according to manufacturer's instructions) and place the pieces of cabbage, one at a time, lying horizontally in the feed tube. (If they don't fit, cut them to fit lying down.) Place the feed tube pusher on top and turn on the processor. Don't push on the feed tube pusher or the slices will turn out too thick! Continue with the remaining red and green cabbage quarters. Transfer into a large bowl, discarding any very large pieces. Before you pour the dressing on the salad, save a handful of the grated vegetables to decorate for serving. Change the slicing blade for the large shredding blade and cut the carrots so they also lie down in the feed tube. Since the carrots are hard, replace the feed tube pusher and press firmly with the food processor on. Transfer to bowl with the cabbages.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, both mustards, vinegar, celery salt, kosher salt, and pepper. Pour enough mayonnaise dressing over the grated vegetables and toss to moisten well. Add crumbled blue cheese and parsley and toss together. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours to allow the flavors to meld. Serve cold or at room temperature.

COLE SLAW, LIKE LEE'S FAMOUS RECIPE
I love coleslaw, and Lee's Famous Recipe and KFC are my hands down favorites unless I can find a broccoli slaw. I found this online, and although I have yet to make it, the mention of cottonseed oil (what?) is very interesting...

BAREFOOT CONTESSA'S BLUE CHEESE COLE SLAW
Terrific slaw to pair with barbeque brisket, try using leftovers to top grilled hamburgers for a delicious pairing. This slaw is also wonderful with diced or shredded apple in it along with walnuts if you want to get fancy. It's also a very cute Fourth of July pun (White cabbage, Red cabbage, Blue cheese!). Add the sauce judiciously, as the cabbage amounts can vary according to the size of the heads. While the recipe calls for a good Roquefort, you don't have to buy expensive blue cheese for this slaw to still taste deeeeelish! Prep time does not include chilling for several hours to allow the flavors to meld.

JOE'S STONE CRAB COLE SLAW RECIPE - (3.7/5)

Steps:
- DRESSING: Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large nonreactive mixing bowl and vigorously whisk it until the sugar and salt dissolve. Check your sugar and salt levels by tasting and adjust as necessary. Be sure the dressing is highly seasoned. PREPARE THE CABBAGE: Remove the core from the cabbage and discard. Cut the cabbage into 4 chucks and finely shred it by using the shredding disc on a food processor or a mandoline set fine. Work in small batches so that you never overcrowd your processor bowl. You should end up with about 10 cups of finely shredded cabbage. Place your shredded cabbage into a large bowl with the dressing you have prepared and toss it until everything is well mixed. Your best tool to do this will probably be your hands. Once all is well blended let it set for at least 10 minutes. If you store your slaw to serve later remember to keep it covered, well chilled, and be sure to remix it when you take it out to serve. READY TO SERVE: Mound your slaw on a platter or onto individual plates. Place your tomato slices on top of the slaw with a dollop of mayo on each slice and a spoonful of relish in the center of each dollop of mayo. Enjoy!
CRISP PICKLED COLE SLAW
This was passed down to me from my mother and it is just great!! My 6 year old son and his friends love it! It is great on the side with burgers or BBQ sandwiches and baked beans. I also like it as a snack. The purple cabbage makes it look so pretty, but you can also use just one type of cabbage(one type of vinegar may be used as well). Also, if you like it hot, try putting in a sliced jalapeno pepper or put some Tabasco sauce in it when you serve it. This recipe makes a lot, but it's ok because it keeps so well.

SPICY CHIPOTLE COLE SLAW
Adapted from one of Emeril's recipes, where he did an episode with "crazy tacos". We like to make this and serve it in the fish tacos. I don't use Emeril's fish taco recipe, though. Instead I serve with Recipe #232309. I've change the propotions a bit and added some extras like cilantro and carrots. I really like the onions. Update 6/6/07: I made this tonight and measured everything as I made it, so I've updated the amounts (usually I don't measure, but just eyeball it).

CRUNCHY ASIAN RAMEN COLE SLAW
I recieved this recipe from my future sister-inlaw, Amy. She got the recipe from her aunt Diana. My family loves this slaw. I chilled my slaw sauce before using while preparing the other ingredients. When I made this I used white vinegar (I do not recommend Apple Cider Vinegar). I recommend using good quality Ramen noodles no off brands. I also use Sunkist Almond Accents roasted garlic caesar flavored sliced almonds. I also allowed my browned noodles, almonds and seeds to cool before mixing into the shredded slaw. Diana says "Do not pour sauce onto slaw mix until ready to serve or the noodles will become soggy".
