CRISP PICKLED COLE SLAW



Crisp Pickled Cole Slaw image

This was passed down to me from my mother and it is just great!! My 6 year old son and his friends love it! It is great on the side with burgers or BBQ sandwiches and baked beans. I also like it as a snack. The purple cabbage makes it look so pretty, but you can also use just one type of cabbage(one type of vinegar may be used as well). Also, if you like it hot, try putting in a sliced jalapeno pepper or put some Tabasco sauce in it when you serve it. This recipe makes a lot, but it's ok because it keeps so well.

LOWCOUNTRY PICKLED COLESLAW



Lowcountry Pickled Coleslaw image

Ben Moïse, a retired game warden in South Carolina, has been serving a version of this coleslaw at his Frogmore stew parties for years. The hot, boiled dressing softens the cabbage and pickles it slightly. The result is a salad that stays delicious even when it sits outside on a picnic table for a few hours. The amount of vegetables can vary, and a finely chopped jalapeño can be added for a little extra heat.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: For a crisp and crunchy coleslaw, choose a firm head of cabbage. Look for one that is heavy for its size and has tightly packed leaves.
  • Shred the cabbage thinly: To ensure an even texture and better absorption of the dressing, shred the cabbage into thin strips. You can use a food processor fitted with a shredding blade or a sharp knife.
  • Use a tangy vinegar: The vinegar in the dressing is what gives coleslaw its characteristic flavor. Use a vinegar with a strong flavor, such as apple cider vinegar or white vinegar.
  • Add sweetness and crunch: To balance the tanginess of the vinegar, add some sweetness to the dressing. Sugar, honey, or maple syrup are all good options. You can also add some crunchy vegetables, such as carrots or celery, for extra texture.
  • Chill the coleslaw before serving: Coleslaw is best served cold. After you've made it, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Crisp pickled coleslaw is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its tangy, sweet, and crunchy flavor, coleslaw is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or barbecue.
