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:

  • For a classic coleslaw, use a combination of green and red cabbage. For a more colorful slaw, add some shredded carrots, bell peppers, or radishes.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and other vegetables. This will help the slaw to be more crisp and flavorful.
  • To make the dressing, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. For a tangier dressing, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a teaspoon of Dijon mustard.
  • Toss the cabbage and vegetables with the dressing until they are evenly coated. Cover the slaw and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the slaw to become more crisp.
  • Serve coleslaw as a side dish with fried chicken, burgers, or hot dogs. It can also be used as a topping for tacos, sandwiches, or salads.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a versatile and delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
