Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 2 large Carrots
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Celery seed
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage, then cut it in half and remove the core. Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the cabbage into long, thin shreds. Alternatively, you can use a food processor with a shredding attachment.
Step 2
Peel the carrots and shred them using a box grater or a food processor with a shredding disc.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, granulated sugar, celery seed, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until the dressing is smooth and fully combined.
Step 4
Add the shredded cabbage and carrots to the bowl with the dressing. Toss thoroughly to ensure all the vegetables are evenly coated in the dressing.
Step 5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together. For best results, refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
Step 6
Before serving, give the coleslaw a good stir and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Step 7
Serve as a side dish or use as a topping for sandwiches and burgers. Enjoy!
