Yield Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup white wine vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon celery seeds
2 teaspoons sweet Hungarian paprika
2 large bunches collard greens (about 2 pounds), thick stems trimmed, leaves halved lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise (about 16 cups)
8 cups thinly sliced Napa cabbage (about 1 medium head)
4 cups coarsely grated peeled carrots (about 6 large)

Steps:

  • Whisk first 6 ingredients in small bowl to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Dressing can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Combine collard greens, cabbage, and carrots in very large bowl. Pour dressing over; toss to coat. Season generously with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until collard greens soften and wilt slightly, tossing occasionally, at least 1 hour and up to 3 hours.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the collard greens for a more tender slaw.
  • To save time, buy pre-shredded collard greens or cabbage.
  • Add other vegetables to the slaw for a more colorful and flavorful dish, such as shredded carrots, red cabbage, or bell peppers.
  • For a creamy slaw, use mayonnaise or Greek yogurt as the base of the dressing.
  • For a tangy slaw, use vinegar or lemon juice as the base of the dressing.
  • Season the slaw to taste with salt, pepper, and other spices.
  • Chill the slaw for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve the slaw as a side dish or on top of tacos, burgers, or grilled chicken.
