AMY'S COLESLAW

This is the result of my own trial and error in the effort to come up with a good, homemade slaw. If it's too tangy for your liking, you can always add more sugar. I've made it with red cabbage, which was really pretty, but it didn't taste as good as the green, so I would recommend sticking with the green cabbage.

Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 medium cabbage (5 cups shredded)
1 large carrot (1/2 c. shredded)
1/4 cup mayonnaise, plus
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, plus
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Shred 3/4 of cabbage.
  • Slice remaining cabbage into ribbons and chunkier pieces (you don't want it all finely shredded).
  • Peel and shred carrot.
  • In a large bowl, combine all ingredients thoroughly.
  • Keep in refrigerator; the flavors will mingle and it will taste even better the next day.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife or mandoline to thinly slice the cabbage and carrots. This will help the coleslaw to absorb the dressing more evenly.
  • If you don't have a mandoline, you can use a food processor fitted with the shredding disc. Just be careful not to over-process the cabbage and carrots, or they will become mushy.
  • To make the coleslaw ahead of time, prepare it up to 24 hours in advance and store it in the refrigerator. The flavors will meld together and the coleslaw will be even more delicious the next day.
  • Serve the coleslaw chilled. This will help to keep it crisp and refreshing.
  • Coleslaw is a versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, a topping for sandwiches or tacos, or even as a main course salad.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a classic summer side dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its bright, crisp cabbage and carrots, creamy dressing, and tangy vinegar, coleslaw is the perfect complement to any grilled or fried foods. Whether you are serving it at a backyard barbecue, a potluck, or a family dinner, this coleslaw recipe is sure to be a hit.
