Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage. Green cabbage is the most common type of cabbage used in coleslaw, but you can also use red cabbage or a combination of both. If you want a milder flavor, use green cabbage. If you want a more pungent flavor, use red cabbage.
  • Shred the cabbage finely. This will help the dressing to coat the cabbage evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to shred the cabbage. This will give you clean, even shreds.
  • Rinse the cabbage after shredding it. This will remove any excess starch and help to prevent the coleslaw from becoming watery.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Taste the dressing before adding it to the cabbage. You may need to adjust the seasonings to your liking.
  • Add the dressing to the cabbage just before serving. This will prevent the cabbage from becoming soggy.
  • Serve the coleslaw chilled. This will help to keep it crisp and refreshing.

Conclusion:

Texas Two-Step Slaw 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. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect Texas Two-Step Slaw every time.
