Pack in antioxidants. The ultimate in simplicity and refreshing taste, this coleslaw is flecked with green, red and yellow vegetables, the colors signifying the presence of antioxidants (cabbage is thought to have anti-cancer activity). I like its crispy, sweet-and-sour taste, unlike that of a creamy coleslaw.

Categories     Other Salads

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 c cabbage, finely shredded
1/2 green pepper, julienned
4 green onions and tops, sliced thin
1 c celery, chopped
2 carrots, coarsely grated
1/2 cucumber, pared and chopped
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c radish, thinly sliced
1/4 tsp pepper
3 Tbsp sugar
3/4 c oil
3/4 c white vinegar
3/4 c ice water

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare vegetables and chill well. Just before serving add combined remaining ingredients and mix lightly.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage. Green cabbage is the most common type used in coleslaw, but you can also use red cabbage or a mix of both. Red cabbage will give your coleslaw a beautiful purple color.
  • Shred the cabbage thinly. This will help the cabbage absorb the dressing better and make it easier to eat.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. In addition to cabbage, you can add other vegetables to your coleslaw, such as carrots, celery, onion, and bell pepper. This will add flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Make your own dressing. The dressing is what really makes coleslaw special. You can find many different recipes for coleslaw dressing online or in cookbooks.
  • Chill the coleslaw before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and make the coleslaw more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a side dish, a main course, or a snack. It's a great way to use up leftover cabbage and other vegetables, and it's a healthy and affordable option. With so many different variations to choose from, there's sure to be a coleslaw recipe that everyone will enjoy.
