Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage, then quarter and core it. Finely shred the cabbage using a sharp knife or a mandoline slicer and place it in a large mixing bowl.
Peel and grate the carrots using a box grater or a food processor. Add the carrots to the mixing bowl with the cabbage.
Thinly slice the red onion into fine slivers and add it to the bowl with the cabbage and carrots.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the yellow mustard, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, and mayonnaise until smooth and well combined.
Stir in the celery seeds, salt, and black pepper to the mustard dressing mixture.
Pour the mustard dressing over the cabbage, carrot, and onion mix. Toss everything together thoroughly until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
Cover the coleslaw and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Give the coleslaw a final toss before serving. Serve chilled as a side dish or as a topping for sandwiches and BBQ.
