Key Components

Inexperienced, crimson, Savoy, or Napa cabbage all work splendidly. In the event you’re brief on time, strive utilizing a bag of pre-shredded cabbage or coleslaw combine.

- Carrots: Provides coloration, a bit sweetness, and taste. I take advantage of a field grater to shred my carrots, however you can even purchase them pre-shredded if that’s simpler.
- Caraway Seeds (or Celery Seeds): For a standard coleslaw taste, use celery seeds, however for a barely totally different, however scrumptious spin, attain for the caraway seeds. Caraway seeds are utilized in our sauerkraut recipe, but in addition are what provides rye bread it’s taste. It does the identical with this slaw, and I like it! Keep in mind, although, should you aren’t a fan of caraway, use celery seeds as a substitute like we do for this coleslaw.
- Do-it-yourself vinegar dressing: I really like the mix of crimson wine vinegar and olive oil on deli subs, in order that’s what we’ve used right here. Crimson 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 mustard powder, sugar (solely a bit bit), and salt. In the event you shouldn’t have mustard powder, you possibly can substitute Dijon mustard. In order for you 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 means, you’ll assure you’ve received the fitting dressing to slaw ratio!
