Traditional Cole Slaw
- 3 - 3 1/2 cups grated cabbage (hand-grated is best!)
- salt & pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar or 1/2 teaspoon artificial sweetener
- 1/2 cup regular mayonnaise or 1/2 cup fat-free mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons half-and-half
- 1. Grate the cabbage finely into a large mixing bowl. The second finest side of a four-sized grater is perfect. Grated cabbage does give the slaw the best texture and doesn't make it as watery as food processors can. This is roughly half a cabbage, give or take..
- 2. Lightly salt and pepper cabbage. Add the sugar. The sugar brings out flavor; it does not sweeten the slaw..
- 3. Add mayo, vinegar, and half & half, mixing well to emulsify.
- 4. Once well incorporated, taste and adjust. For sweeter slaw, add more sugar. Tangier slaw, more vinegar. Careful with liquid ingredients so the slaw isn't slushy.
