- If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a sharp knife to slice the cabbage and carrots. Just be sure to slice them as thinly as possible.
- Use a variety of cabbages and carrots for a more colorful and flavorful slaw. Some good options include red cabbage, savoy cabbage, and purple carrots.
- Add some other vegetables to the slaw, such as radishes, celery, or fennel. This will add even more flavor and crunch.
- Be sure to taste the slaw before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more vinegar, sugar, or salt.
