SWEET AND SOUR COLESLAW, MOM



Sweet and Sour Coleslaw, Mom image

Mom noted that this is good on its own, or can be added to marinated bean salad for a different taste.

Provided by Megan Stewart

Categories     Other Salads

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 c cabbage, finely shredded
1/2 green pepper, julienned
4 green onions and tops, sliced thin
1 c celery, chopped
2 carrots, coarsely grated
1/2 cucumber, pared and chopped
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c radish, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp pepper
3 Tbsp sugar
3/4 c oil
3/4 c white vinegar
3/4 c ice water

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare vegetables and chill well. Just before serving add combined remaining ingredients and mix lightly.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage. This will help the coleslaw absorb the dressing better and make it more flavorful.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor fitted with a slicing blade. Just be careful not to over-process the cabbage, or it will become mushy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your coleslaw. This will add color, flavor, and texture to the dish. Some good options include carrots, bell peppers, celery, and radishes.
  • Make sure to drain the cabbage well before adding it to the dressing. This will help prevent the coleslaw from becoming watery.
  • Taste the dressing before adding it to the coleslaw. You may need to adjust the sweetness or acidity to your liking.
  • Serve the coleslaw immediately, or chill it for a few hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Sweet and sour coleslaw is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give this recipe a try!
