Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (shredded) Green cabbage
- 2 cups (shredded) Red cabbage
- 2 medium (peeled and shredded) Carrots
- 3 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 teaspoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Celery seeds
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the green cabbage, red cabbage, and shredded carrots. Toss to mix the vegetables evenly.
In a separate small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, celery seeds, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the mixed vegetables. Using tongs or clean hands, toss the coleslaw thoroughly to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Taste the coleslaw and adjust the seasoning as needed by adding more salt, pepper, or a splash of vinegar for extra tang.
Cover the coleslaw and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 15-30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Before serving, give the coleslaw one final mix to redistribute the dressing. Serve chilled as a side dish or topping.
