Perfect Classic Coleslaw
Ingredients
For the slaw
- 1 medium green cabbage, about 2 pounds
- 2 large carrots, peeled
- 2 green onions
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
For the dressing
- 1 cup mayonnaise (homemade or real mayonnaise only – no Miracle Whip or other highly processed substitutes)
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 3 tablespoons evaporated cane sugar or honey
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar or plain kombucha
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds (optional)
- 1 teaspoon celery seeds (optional)
Instructions
- First, make the slaw by shredding all the vegetables, either using a food processor or a large grater. Toss the vegetables in a large bowl with the salt and set aside.
- Make the dressing by whisking the mayonnaise, salt, pepper, sugar, and apple cider vinegar until absolutely smooth. Add the seeds (if using) and whisk again.
- Pour half of the dressing over the shredded vegetables and toss to coat evenly, then add the remaining dressing as desired.
- Serve immediately or chill for up to 12 hours.
