Time 20m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons distilled white vinegar (or more)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon hot sauce, such as Texas Pete
coarse salt (kosher or sea)
fresh ground black pepper
1/2 large green cabbage, cored and cut into 1-inch pieces (for about 4 cups finely chopped)
1 medium carrot, peeled

Steps:

  • Place mustard and sugar in a non-reactive mixing bowl and whisk to mix. Gradually whisk in vinegar, oil and hot sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste; the dressing should be highly seasoned. Set dressing aside.
  • Finely chop cabbage in a food processor fitted with a metal chopping blade, running the machine in short bursts; this is a chopped, not a shredded, slaw. Work in several batches so as not to overcrowd processor bowl.
  • Finely grate carrot by hand or use shredding disk of food processor.
  • Add cabbage and carrot to dressing and toss to mix. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt and vinegar as necessary.
  • The slaw tastes best served within a few hours of being made but can be refrigerated, covered, for a day or two.

MEMPHIS STYLE MUSTARD COLESLAW RECIPE



Memphis Style Mustard Coleslaw Recipe image

This is THE most flavorful coleslaw recipe you'll ever try, I can promise you that. You've never had anything quite like this. Perfect with Memphis barbeque ribs or chicken (or whatever), you'll probably want to make this instead of your regular coleslaw for... well, forever. It's that good. You'll want to start this a day in advance if you have time. Because while taking the time to draw the extra liquid from the veggies really makes the texture of the final slaw, it does take some time to drain, rinse, and dry them

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 head green cabbage, shredded (or 1 16 oz. bag coleslaw mix)
2 large carrots, shredded
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 medium white onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 cup yellow mustard
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup chili sauce (can use ketchup in a pinch)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt)
1 teaspoon celery seed
2/3 cup brown sugar

Steps:

  • Combine prepared vegetables (cabbage, carrot, jalepeño, and onion) and salt together in a strainer over the sink.
  • Let sit at least 15 minutes (1-2 hours is better) to drain. This keeps the finished slaw from being nasty and watery.
  • Rinse the vegetables under cold water and let dry. In a bowl or plastic bag, place in the refrigerator until ready to use, up to one day.
  • To make dressing, combine mustards, vinegar, chili sauce, mayonnaise, sour cream (or Greek yogurt), and sugar in a medium, non-reactive saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add celery seed. Reduce heat and simmer about 3-5 minutes, until sugar has dissolved.
  • Cool to room temperature. Pour over veggies in a large serving bowl. Mix well.
  • Refrigerate at least an hour before serving. Perfect on a Memphis barbeque pulled pork sandwich.
