Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded green cabbage, grated carrots, thinly sliced red onion, and chopped cilantro. Toss them together until evenly mixed.

Pickling the Slaw

  1. 2

    Make the Pickling Brine

    In a saucepan, combine the white vinegar, water, salt, sugar, dried oregano, and black peppercorns. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the salt and sugar are dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

  2. 3

    Combine and Marinate

    Pour the pickling brine over the mixed vegetables in the bowl. Stir well to ensure all vegetables are coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer everything to a jar with a lid. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight for best flavor.

Serving

  1. 4

    Serve the Curtido Slaw

    Once the slaw has marinated, give it a good stir before serving. Enjoy it as a side dish with your favorite tacos or grilled meats.
