Instrucciones
- 1
Finely shred the green cabbage (and red cabbage if using) using a knife, mandoline, or food processor. You want thin, uniform strips about 1/8-inch wide. Place the shredded cabbage in a mixing bowl.
- 2
Add the grated carrot and sliced green onions (if using) to the mixing bowl with the cabbage.
- 3
Sprinkle 1 tsp of kosher salt over the vegetables and toss well. Let sit for 10 minutes — this draws out excess moisture so your coleslaw stays creamy, not watery. After 10 minutes, use your hands or a clean kitchen towel to squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the cabbage. Discard the liquid.
- 4
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, sugar, celery seed, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until completely smooth and well combined. Taste and adjust — add more vinegar for tang, more sugar for sweetness, or more salt as needed.
- 5
Pour the dressing over the drained cabbage mixture and toss thoroughly until every strand is evenly coated.
- 6
Cover the mixing bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving — this is key. The rest time lets the flavors meld and the cabbage soften just slightly while staying crisp. For best results, refrigerate for 2–4 hours.
- 7
Before serving, give the coleslaw a good toss and taste for seasoning. Adjust salt, black pepper, or a splash more vinegar if needed. Serve cold, straight from the fridge.
