Steps:
- Whisk together mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, salt, mayonnaise, and sour cream in a small bowl. Refrigerate dressing, covered, until ready to use, or up to 2 days.
- Put cabbage, carrots, and onion (if desired) in a large bowl. Pour in dressing, and toss thoroughly. Refrigerate, covered, until slaw begins to soften, 1 to 2 hours. If not using immediately, refrigerate, covered, up to 2 days. Just before serving, toss coleslaw again.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp cabbage. Napa cabbage or Savoy cabbage can be used instead of green cabbage.
- Shred the cabbage finely using a sharp knife or a food processor fitted with a shredding blade. This will help the dressing to coat the cabbage evenly.
- Use a combination of mayonnaise and sour cream for a creamy and tangy dressing. You can also use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a healthier option.
- Add some sweetness to the dressing with sugar or honey. You can also use a sugar substitute if you prefer.
- Add some acidity to the dressing with vinegar or lemon juice. This will help to balance out the sweetness of the dressing.
- Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or celery seed.
- Chill the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the coleslaw as a side dish with grilled meats, fried chicken, or fish. You can also use it as a topping for tacos or sandwiches.
