Mom's Coleslaw Recipe - Cooking Index
8 cups | 1896ml | Green cabbage - finely shredded |
1 cup | 237ml | Mayonnaise |
1/2 cup | 118ml | Red wine vinegar |
2 teaspoons | 10ml | Sugar |
1 tablespoon | 15ml | Dijon-type mustard |
1/4 cup | 27g / 1oz | Carrots - finely grated |
1/8 cup | 18g / 0.6oz | Parsley and chives - finely chopped |
1/8 teaspoon | 0.6ml | Salt |
1/4 teaspoon | 1.3ml | Black pepper - freshly ground |
The secret seems to be soaking the cabbage in ice cold water for a couple of hours.
Remove outer leaves from cabbage, then core. Cut heads into quarters and soak in cold water in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
Shake off excess water and shred very finely, then pat shreds dry with towels. Place the shreds in a bowl and mix in all other ingredients. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
