Categories     Salad Dressings

Time 5m

Yield 1 salad, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients and season with some salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Pour over prepared shredded, cabbage and apples.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage. Green cabbage is the most common type used in coleslaw, but you can also use red cabbage or a combination of both. If you want a sweeter coleslaw, use green cabbage. If you want a more tangy coleslaw, use red cabbage.
  • Shred the cabbage finely. This will help the dressing to coat the cabbage evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife to shred the cabbage. A dull knife will tear the cabbage and make it tough.
  • Rinse the shredded cabbage with cold water and drain it well. This will help to remove any excess starch and make the coleslaw less watery.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Taste the dressing before adding it to the cabbage. Adjust the seasonings to your liking.
  • Toss the cabbage and dressing together gently. Over-mixing will make the coleslaw mushy.
  • Chill the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to develop and the coleslaw to become more crisp.
  • Serve the coleslaw as a side dish or on top of burgers, hot dogs, or sandwiches.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed all year round. With so many different variations, there is sure to be a coleslaw recipe that everyone will love. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy side dish, give coleslaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
