THE BEST CREAMY COLESLAW
We made our cool, crunchy slaw with just the right amount of tang from sour cream and vinegar. A bit of honey balances the acidity. This classic summer side dish would be welcome at any picnic or backyard BBQ.

THE BEST CREAMY COLESLAW (GOURMET MAG)
Let me first say that as a general rule, I don't like coleslaw. However, this coleslaw is AMAZING and is a far cry from the limp, sugary, slop that is on most menus. It pairs perfectly on top of a pulled pork sandwich or as a side dish with any other BBQ or picnic fare. It has just the right balance of sweet and tart. The recipe is from the June 2008 issue of Gourmet Magazine and is by far the greatest and freshest out there. Note: I can only guarantee results by chopping up your own cabbage as the recipe calls for... I haven't used one of those pre-shredded coleslaw mixes and don't know how it will turn out if you decide to take that shortcut. *Cook time is "refrigeration" time.

Steps:
- Finely chop or shred cabbage. (A food processor's fine slicing disk does this super well!).
- Toss all vegetables in a large bowl with salt and pepper.
- Whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, and sugar.
- Toss with slaw.
- Chill, covered, stirring occasionally, at least 1 hour (for vegetables to wilt and flavors to blend).
Tips:
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage. This will help the slaw absorb the dressing more easily and make it more tender.
- Shred the carrots and celery into matchsticks. This will also help them absorb the dressing and make them more flavorful.
- Use a combination of mayonnaise, sour cream, and Dijon mustard for the dressing. This will give the slaw a creamy, tangy, and flavorful base.
- Add some chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley, dill, or chives, to the dressing. This will give the slaw a pop of freshness and flavor.
- Season the slaw with salt and pepper to taste. This will help to balance out the flavors and make the slaw more delicious.
- Chill the slaw for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and make the slaw even more delicious.
