Nothing better to cool down a hot evening or a spicy main dish like coleslaw.
My grandmother had her favorite: shredded green cabbage soaked in salted water
to crisp it, then drained. A dash of vinegar, sugar to balance the tang, and mayonnaise to taste.
Mixed well, perhaps a bit of red cabbage for color, and a sprinkle of dried mustard for
spice. Simple and delicious, and you probably already have a variation of it.
But want trying to impress at a summer potluck? Try this variation via Martha Stewart.
Napa cabbage, radishes, daikon, and a zingy dressing that will knock the socks off of
your conventional slaw. Find it here.

Luv a tasty, nicely made, natty, cole slaw!
ReplyDeleteShoot, I should have bought cabbage today.
ReplyDeleteI've never made a decent cole slaw. I'll try both of these.
ReplyDeleteAnd I actually have cabbage.
ReplyDeleteAnd it was really, really good. I could live on that during the dog days of summer.
ReplyDeleteI'll have a crack at this, I don't like shop bought coleslaw as it is usually too runny.
ReplyDeleteI think I've had this version. And it was really really good.
ReplyDeletebtw: I bought two bags of mixed slaw and two jars of peanut butter today at Costco. It's like it was meant to be
TVH: dress this one at the very last minute!
ReplyDeletePA--kismet!
Coleslaw, my all time favorite summer salad. Try it with a dash of curry powder in it for a once-in-a-while kick.
ReplyDeleteWill indeed have to give it a try!
