Traditional Cole Slaw

Total Time: 20 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 5 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 3 -3 1/2 cups grated cabbage (hand-grated is best!)
• salt & pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon sugar or 1/2 teaspoon artificial sweetener
• 1/2 cup regular mayonnaise or 1/2 cup fat-free mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons half-and-half

Recipe

• 1 1. grate the cabbage finely into a large mixing bowl. the second finest side of a four-sized grater is perfect. [grated cabbage does give the slaw the best texture and doesn't make it as watery as food processors can. this is roughly half a cabbage, give or take.].
• 2 2. lightly salt and pepper cabbage. add the sugar. [the sugar brings out flavor; it does not sweeten the slaw.].
• 3 3. add mayo, vinegar, and half & half, mixing well to emulsify.
• 4 4. once well incorporated, taste and adjust. for sweeter slaw, add more sugar. tangier slaw, more vinegar. careful with liquid ingredients so the slaw isn't slushy.
