HONEY MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE COLESLAW DRESSING



Honey Mustard Vinaigrette Coleslaw Dressing image

I volunteer for my local public TV station and was co-chair of the food committee that provided food and snacks for volunteers & staff at a major fund raiser in the late spring. The food tent is always located in the outdoor court yard next to the grill. I developed this recipe as an alternative for mayonnaise based coleslaw dressing since the food needed to hold up in the heat of the outdoors. They ate it as a side dish, and on their hot dogs and burgers. They even came back for seconds! This is great for regular salads and dipping too. Enjoy!

COLORFUL COLESLAW VINAIGRETTE



Colorful Coleslaw Vinaigrette image

Make and share this Colorful Coleslaw Vinaigrette recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Caryn Gale

Categories     Vegetable

Time 18m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 small cabbage
2 medium carrots
1 red pepper
1 yellow pepper
1 green pepper
1/4 purple cabbage
1 cup vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

Steps:

  • Shred all of the vegetables.
  • I use the slicer on my food processor and not the shredder because it makes everything so small and juicy.
  • I find the cabbage shreds nicely using the slicer and I usually cut my peppers into 2 or 4 wedges and stand them up.
  • I do use the large shredder for the carrots.
  • Place all vegetables in a large Tupperware bowl.
  • Don't worry that it looks like a lot, it will reduce by about half after it marinades for a couple of hours.
  • Place all the dressing ingredients in a saucepan on the stovetop and bring just to a boil.
  • Remove from heat and stir well.
  • Pour it over the vegetables.
  • Seal lid and shake.
  • Place in refrigerator and shake every once in a while.
  • I usually drain off some of the marinade before I serve it because it is so juicy.

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 a slicing blade. Just be careful not to over-process the vegetables, or they will become mushy.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your coleslaw. Some good options include broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and bell peppers.
  • Add some crumbled bacon, chopped nuts, or grated cheese to your coleslaw for extra flavor and texture.
  • Use a light and tangy dressing for your coleslaw. A simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, vinegar, and Dijon mustard is a good option.
  • Let the coleslaw sit in the dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly.
  • Serve the coleslaw chilled or at room temperature.

Conclusion:

Coleslaw is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy side dish, give coleslaw a try!
