Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Celery seed
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Whole milk (optional, for thinning if needed)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, and granulated sugar.
Whisk together until the sugar dissolves and the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
Add the Dijon mustard, celery seed, salt, and ground black pepper to the mixture.
Whisk again until all the ingredients are well combined and evenly distributed.
If the dressing is too thick, stir in the whole milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or sugar if needed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the dressing to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Stir the dressing one final time before using. Pour it over freshly shredded cabbage and carrots, tossing to coat evenly.
