RED HOT SLAW



Red Hot Slaw image

This is a fabulous wilted bacon cabbage slaw with a beautiful, bright color that is really delicious. (You can use green but the color isn't as vibrant, obviously.) Even our 3 year old loved it! And it is super easy with (probably) things you'd have in your kitchen. Easy and wonderful presentation AND delicious.

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small red cabbage, thinly shredded
4 slices lean bacon, diced
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons sugar
1/3 cup cider vinegar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/3 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Place the cabbage in a large/wide heatproof serving bowl. It makes it easier to toss all the shredded cabbage.

  • Discard all but around 3 tablespoons of the fat from the skillet. Add the onion and saute for 5 minutes or until soft. Sprinkle the sugar over the top and cook 2 minutes longer or until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the vinegar and bring to a boil.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with the water until smooth. Stir this mixture in to the skillet along with the salt and pepper. Return to a boil and cook 1 minute longer. Pour the mixture over the cabbage and toss well.
  • Cabbage should have a bright magenta color.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: For the best results, use a firm head of green or red cabbage. Avoid using Savoy cabbage, as it has a looser texture and will not hold up as well in the slaw.
  • Shred the cabbage finely: This will help the slaw to absorb the dressing more evenly.
  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the onion: This will help to prevent the onion from overpowering the other flavors in the slaw.
  • Toast the caraway seeds: This will bring out their nutty flavor and add a nice crunch to the slaw.
  • Use a good quality mayonnaise: This is the base of the dressing, so make sure to use a brand that you like the taste of.
  • Add some vinegar to the dressing: This will help to balance out the richness of the mayonnaise and add a bit of tang.
  • Season the dressing with salt and pepper to taste: This will help to bring out the flavors of the other ingredients.
  • Chill the slaw before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and make the slaw even more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Janet's Red Hot Cabbage Slaw is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a new slaw recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
