SWEET AND SOUR COLE SLAW



Sweet and Sour Cole Slaw image

Ever since she was a child, Maribeth couldn't stand the sight of mayonaisse, and mommy went to great lengths to hide it in recipes where it was required - but there was simply no hiding it in cole slaw. So she turned to a local cookbook at the time - the old River Road Recipes II - A second Helping - put out by the Junior League of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Here is a GREAT tasting, non-creamy cole slaw - particuarily good with barbequed chicken. Notice that this recipe is made the night before - and also, as it contains no eggs or dairy, it would be perfectly safe for travel on picnics. This recipe is credited to Mrs. Ben Miller, Jr.

Yield Makes about 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound (about half a medium head) green cabbage, finely shredded
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 small red onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons rice-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon mustard
2 teaspoons minced fresh tarragon leaves

(Cabbage can be stored in a resealable plastic bag and refrigerated overnight.)
  • Stir together onion, honey, vinegar, oil, mustard, and tarragon in a medium bowl; set dressing aside. Immediately toss cabbage, apple, and fennel in dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Categories     Vegetable

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 to 3/4 green cabbage, thinly sliced
1 red pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
2 carrots, grated
Dressing:
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
1/3 cup cider vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon celery seeds or cumin seeds, toasted and ground

Steps:

  • 1. Combine cabbage, red pepper and carrots in large bowl. Mix well 2. Combine all dressing ingredients, except vinegar and oil, in a small saucepan. Gradually whisk in vinegar and oil to avoid lumps. 3. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook for one minute. 4. Pour hot dressing over slaw and toss well. Cover and refrigerate.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. This will help them absorb the dressing better and make the slaw more crisp and flavorful.
  • To save time, you can use a pre-shredded coleslaw mix. However, be sure to rinse it well before using to remove any excess moisture.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to your slaw, such as shredded bell pepper, broccoli slaw, or snap peas.
  • For a sweeter slaw, add a little more sugar or honey to the dressing. For a tangier slaw, add a little more vinegar.
  • If you want a creamy slaw, add a dollop of mayonnaise or Greek yogurt to the dressing.
  • Serve the slaw immediately or chill it for later. It will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
