VINCENT'S FAMOUS GARLIC COLESLAW



Vincent's Famous Garlic Coleslaw image

Tired of all the super sweet coleslaw dressings out there? Look no further! Caution - must LOVE garlic! This is a copycat recipe for the famous garlic coleslaw served at Vincent's seafood restaurant, a Dallas legend since 1968. Growing up, we had an Easter tradition of dinner at Vincent's every year. The coleslaw was my dad's favorite and became mine too! We still go there for Easter but I love being able to recreate this unique recipe at home anytime. Goes great with barbecue ribs, burgers, seafood steam pot, or just as a cool crisp snack. The longer it cures, the better it gets!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 -3 garlic cloves, minced, to taste (see note below)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon cider vinegar (see note #2 below)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon orange juice
1 teaspoon fresh lemon rind (optional)
1 teaspoon fresh orange rind (optional)
1 small cabbage, shredded
2 -3 carrots, grated
2 green onions, chopped (scallions)
1/4 teaspoon salt, to taste
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper, to taste
sugar, to taste (optional, added only if you like your slaw sweet, see note #3 below) (optional)

Steps:

  • In a bowl combine the garlic, mayo, vinegar, lemon and orange juice, and lemon/orange rinds (if using, which you should if you can because it's tasty!). Whisk them together to make the dressing. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, carrot, and green onions, and toss well.
  • Pour the dressing over the coleslaw mix, season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and stir it all together well.
  • Chill for at least an hour before serving (preferably two). Makes about 4 servings.
  • Note: you can use roasted or baked garlic in this instead of fresh, too. You will just have to use more of it because it is milder, and add it to the dressing to taste. Chopped roasted red pepper is also a good addition.
  • Note #2: a good substitute for cider vinegar, if you like a lighter taste, is champagne vinegar. If you've not had champagne vinegar before, give it a try - it's wonderful!
  • Note: #3: as the recipe description notes, this slaw is not sweet if you do not add the optional sugar. However, if prefer your coleslaw a bit sweet, add the sugar to taste.

GARLIC COLE SLAW



Garlic Cole Slaw image

My ex mother-in-law used to make this cole slaw whenever there was a barbecue at her home. It is a nice alternative to sweet cole slaws, and the tangy garlic taste offsets the barbecue flavor. I guessed at the amount of mayonnaise, as I have never really measured. After mixing the grated cabbage and onion, add mayonnaise to the right consistency, then season with salt, pepper and lots of garlic powder, you want it to have a fairly strong garlic flavor.

garlic powder

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: Green cabbage and red cabbage are the most common types used for coleslaw, but you can also use a mix of both. Green cabbage has a milder flavor, while red cabbage has a more peppery flavor.
  • Shred the cabbage thinly: This will help the coleslaw absorb the dressing better. You can use a food processor or a sharp knife to shred the cabbage.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to cabbage, you can add other vegetables to your coleslaw, such as carrots, celery, onions, and peppers. This will add flavor, color, and texture to the dish.
  • Make your own dressing: A simple vinaigrette made with vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper is a classic coleslaw dressing. You can also add other ingredients to the dressing, such as mayonnaise, sour cream, or yogurt.
  • Let the coleslaw chill: After you make the coleslaw, let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a versatile dish that can be served as a side dish or a main course. It is a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of vegetables. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a coleslaw recipe that everyone will enjoy.
