Ingredients
- 6 cups Green cabbage
- 1 cup Carrots
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons White vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Celery seed
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Core the green cabbage and finely shred it using a sharp knife, mandoline slicer, or food processor until you yield approximately 6 cups.
Step 2
Peel and grate the carrots until you have 1 cup of shredded carrot. Combine the shredded cabbage and carrot in a large mixing bowl.
Step 3
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, white vinegar, granulated sugar, celery seed, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper to make a smooth dressing.
Step 4
Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrot mixture. Using tongs or a large spoon, toss the vegetables thoroughly until evenly coated with the dressing.
Step 5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the coleslaw for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Step 6
Before serving, give the coleslaw another quick toss and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Step 7
Serve chilled as a side dish to complement seafood, barbecue, or fried chicken.
