COLESLAW
This classic version of coleslaw is also the simplest, with a light, creamy, tangy-sweet dressing spiked with celery seeds. For the best result, make the coleslaw a few hours ahead and refrigerate it to allow all the flavors to marry and soak into the cabbage. Celery seeds add strong, aromatic, grassy notes, but simply skip them if they're unavailable. For extra flair, you could add ½ cup of your favorite chopped fresh herb, such as parsley, tarragon or dill. Leftovers make a great topping for tacos, hot dogs, sliders and sandwiches.

Steps:
- In a very large bowl, combine mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and celery seeds. Season with salt and pepper, and mix until smooth.
- Shred the cabbage: Using a sharp knife, quarter and core the green cabbage. Arrange quarters cut side down, so they sit flat and stable. Thinly slice them lengthwise for longer shreds (or crosswise for shorter shreds). Repeat with the purple cabbage. You should get about 16 total cups of shredded green and purple cabbage.
- Add all the shredded cabbage and the shredded carrots to the bowl, season with salt and pepper, and toss until well combined. (Hands work best here.)
- Transfer coleslaw to a serving bowl and serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate 3 hours ahead of time and up to overnight for the best texture, and serve chilled.
Tips:
- For a creamy coleslaw, use a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and mustard. If desired, add a bit of vinegar or lemon juice to brighten the flavors.
- For a crunchy coleslaw, use a variety of cabbages and vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and red onion. Cut the vegetables into thin strips using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer.
- To enhance the flavor of the coleslaw, season it with salt, pepper, sugar, and celery seeds. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as dill, parsley, or caraway seeds.
- Let the coleslaw chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the coleslaw to become more creamy and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Creamy coleslaw is a classic summer side dish that is perfect for picnics, potlucks, and backyard barbecues. It is also a healthy and delicious way to add more vegetables to your diet. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a creamy coleslaw that is sure to be a hit with everyone at your next gathering.
