minutesTo make coleslaw dressing, the ingredients are typically mixed together until well combined. The dressing is then poured over the shredded cabbage and any other vegetables in the coleslaw recipe. The cabbage and other ingredients are usually tossed in the dressing until evenly coated, allowing the flavors to meld together. The coleslaw is then chilled before serving to allow the flavors to develop further.
Ingredients
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon mustard (yellow or Dijon)
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, and mustard.
- Whisk the ingredients together until they are well combined and the sugar has dissolved.
- Taste the dressing and season with salt and pepper to your liking. Adjust the sweetness or tanginess by adding more sugar or vinegar if desired.
- If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add a little bit of milk or buttermilk to the dressing and whisk it in.
- Once the dressing is ready, you can use it immediately or refrigerate it for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend together before using it in your coleslaw.
