Slaw

Method

Slaw

  1. 1

    Prepare vegetables

    Trim outer leaves from the cabbages. Cut each cabbage into quarters, remove core, then finely shred using a sharp knife or a mandoline. Place shredded green and red cabbage in a large mixing bowl.

  2. 2

    Add carrots and onion

    Peel and grate the carrots (use the large holes of a box grater or a food processor). Thinly slice the red onion into half-moons. Add grated carrots, sliced onion, and chopped parsley to the bowl with the cabbage. Toss lightly to combine.

Dressing

  1. 3

    Make dressing

    In a medium bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, celery seed, salt, black pepper, and optional lemon juice until smooth and homogenous. Taste and adjust seasoning—add a little more vinegar or lemon if you want more brightness, or more honey if you prefer sweeter.

  2. 4

    Combine

    Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetable mixture. Using two large spoons or salad tongs, fold the dressing into the slaw until evenly coated. Mix gently but thoroughly so dressing lightly coats all ingredients.

  3. 5

    Rest

    Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (preferably 1–2 hours) to allow flavors to meld and the cabbage to soften slightly. For best texture, toss again just before serving and taste to adjust salt and pepper.
