Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

16 ounces shredded cabbage/carrot blend (classic is green cabbage but you can add some red cabbage for color)
For the Coleslaw Dressing:
1 cup quality mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons yellow mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon celery seeds
1 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the shredded cabbage and carrots in a large bowl and sprinkle a teaspoon of salt over them. Toss to combine. Let this sit for at least an hour to draw out excess water. Rinse and thoroughly drain (either use a salad spinner to spin dry it or lay it out on paper towels and blot dry.) Return the cabbage to the bowl.
  • Combine the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Pour it over the cabbage mixture and stir until combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Time 15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound white cabbage (1/2 small head)
3/4 pound red cabbage (1/2 small head)
5 carrots
2 cups good mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 teaspoons celery seeds
1 teaspoon celery salt
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Fit a food processor with the thickest slicing blade. Cut the cabbages into small wedges and place horizontally into the feed tube. Process in batches. Next, fit the food processor with the grating blade. Cut the carrots in half and place in the feed tube so they are lying on their sides. Process in batches and mix in a bowl with the grated cabbages.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, sugar, vinegar, celery seeds, celery salt, salt, and pepper. Pour enough of the dressing over the grated vegetables to moisten them. Serve cold or at room temperature.
