Key Elements

When you’re quick on time, strive utilizing a bag of pre-shredded cabbage or coleslaw combine. When you have leftover cabbage, listed here are all of our straightforward cabbage recipes!
- Carrots: Provides shade, a bit of sweetness, and taste. I exploit a field grater to shred my carrots, however you can too purchase them pre-shredded if that’s simpler.
- Caraway Seeds (or Celery Seeds): For a conventional coleslaw taste, use celery seeds, however for a barely completely different, however scrumptious spin, attain for the caraway seeds. Caraway seeds are utilized in our sauerkraut recipe, but additionally are what offers rye bread it’s taste. It does the identical with this slaw, and I like it! Keep in mind, although, in the event you aren’t a fan of caraway, use celery seeds as a substitute like we do for this coleslaw.
- Selfmade vinegar dressing: I like the mix of pink wine vinegar and olive oil on deli subs, in order that’s what we’ve used right here. Purple wine vinegar tastes a bit lighter and fewer acidic than different vinegars, which works properly with the coleslaw. To steadiness the dressing, we additionally whisk in a bit of mustard powder, sugar (solely a bit of bit), and salt. When you shouldn’t have mustard powder, you possibly can substitute Dijon mustard. If you’d like extra of a citrus dressing, strive our cilantro lime slaw, which can be mayo-free.
When making this vinegar-based coleslaw, add about two-thirds of the dressing at first, then add extra as wanted. That approach, you’ll assure you’ve bought the proper dressing to slaw ratio!
