JOE'S STONE CRAB COLE SLAW RECIPE - (3.7/5)



Joe's Stone Crab Cole Slaw Recipe - (3.7/5) image

Provided by รก-3862

Number Of Ingredients 10

JOE'S STONE DRESSING:
2/3 cup cider vinegar
6 tablespoons sugar (or to taste)
2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
SLAW:
1 medium head of green cabbage (about 32 ounces)
4 large ripe tomatoes, sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch slices
8 tablespoons mayonnaise (They use Hellmann's)
4 tablespoons sweet pickle relish

Steps:

  • DRESSING: Combine the vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large nonreactive mixing bowl and vigorously whisk it until the sugar and salt dissolve. Check your sugar and salt levels by tasting and adjust as necessary. Be sure the dressing is highly seasoned. PREPARE THE CABBAGE: Remove the core from the cabbage and discard. Cut the cabbage into 4 chucks and finely shred it by using the shredding disc on a food processor or a mandoline set fine. Work in small batches so that you never overcrowd your processor bowl. You should end up with about 10 cups of finely shredded cabbage. Place your shredded cabbage into a large bowl with the dressing you have prepared and toss it until everything is well mixed. Your best tool to do this will probably be your hands. Once all is well blended let it set for at least 10 minutes. If you store your slaw to serve later remember to keep it covered, well chilled, and be sure to remix it when you take it out to serve. READY TO SERVE: Mound your slaw on a platter or onto individual plates. Place your tomato slices on top of the slaw with a dollop of mayo on each slice and a spoonful of relish in the center of each dollop of mayo. Enjoy!

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 head cabbage
2 pkg imitation crabmeat
2 c mayonnaise
1 bunch green onion
1/2 chopped round sweet onion
2 pinch salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp ground stone mustard
2 tsp apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • 1. Thinly slice entire head of cabbage and place in a large mixing bowl. I usually omit the core and save it to use as filler for stews and soup.
  • 2. Cut the green onions in the same manner and add them to the bowl. This may be omitted, I mainly use it for coloring.
  • 3. Finely chop your onion and add to mixing bowl.
  • 4. Open your packages of imitation crab meat and you may either chop or peel and add to mixing bowl. Either way works fine, it just depends on how you like to eat your crab whether in chunks or slivers. Add salt, pepper, mustard and vinegar then thoroughly mix all ingredients.
  • 5. Add mayonnaise. Amount may be adjusted to your taste. This recipe is much better when prepared ahead of time so that all ingredients have time to marinate.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your crab cole slaw.
  • Shred the cabbage and carrots thinly. This will help them absorb the dressing better.
  • Use a creamy mayonnaise-based dressing. This will help to bind the slaw together and give it a rich flavor.
  • Add some fresh herbs, such as dill or parsley, to the dressing. This will add a bright, herbaceous flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different variations of crab cole slaw. You can add other vegetables, such as red cabbage, broccoli, or bell peppers. You can also use different types of seafood, such as shrimp or lobster.

Conclusion:

Crab cole slaw is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a new salad to try, give crab cole slaw a try. You won't be disappointed!
