Description

A vibrant and crunchy coleslaw perfect for summer barbecues, balancing richness with freshness.


Ingredients

  • 1 small head green cabbage, shredded
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon celery seed (optional)


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and carrots.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, and celery seed until smooth.
  3. Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots, and toss until everything is evenly coated.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Serve chilled.

Notes

Using high-quality mayonnaise can enhance the flavor significantly. Allowing the coleslaw to sit in the fridge helps flavors blend.
