Classic Coleslaw Recipe
Ingredients:
- 16 ounces Coleslaw mix – shredded cabbage and shredded carrots
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tbs. white distilled vinegar
- 2 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 Tbs. finely minced sweet onion
- ¼ tsp. celery salt
- ¼ cup buttermilk – shake well before pouring
- 2 Tbs. milk (optional)
- ¼ tsp. salt or to taste
- Several grates freshly ground pepper or to taste
Directions:
- Dump the coleslaw mix onto a large cutting board and give it a chop to be sure there are no large pieces. The pieces should all be about ½ inch. Put the chopped coleslaw into a large mixing bowl.
- In a smaller bowl, combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, onion, vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, celery salt, salt and pepper, until thoroughly combined.
- Pour the mixture over the coleslaw and then mix well until thoroughly coated. Add 1-2 tablespoons of milk for a thinner dressing, if desired and mix again. Cover and refrigerate for a several hours or overnight to chill and marry the flavors. This also gives the acids in the dressing a chance to soften the cabbage a bit. I’ve made this coleslaw two days ahead and the flavor was even better! While chilling, stir occasionally, if possible. Mix thoroughly before serving. Place in small serving bowls and serve alongside of the main meal or spoon over a sandwich! Pulled pork topped with coleslaw is one of my favorites! Enjoy! Di
