1940's Coleslaw image

The original title is simply Coleslaw. I added the 1940's as this recipe is for a request for coleslaw made with a cooked dressing. Since most dressings for coleslaw today are not cooked and this book is from the 40's I renamed the recipe to help distinguish it from today's typical deli fare.

This coleslaw is a great make-ahead dish. It actually gets better after it's had a chance to chill in the refrigerator for a few hours.

I'm not a fan of celery seeds, so I usually omit them from this recipe. The coleslaw is still delicious without them.

I'm not usually a big fan of coleslaw, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so creamy and flavorful, and the cabbage is perfectly crisp. I'll definitely be making this again.
