Cole Slaw dressing and Cole Slaw
What makes this dressing recipe more wonderful is the use of the garlic aioli recipe found here. But frankly, that recipe makes everything taste better when used.

Same Ingredients but I just like this photo |
Mix all the ingredients together and taste for preference. You may want to add a little more zing (sour cream) or a bit more freshness (lemon juice), or sugar to make it sweeter. This is a good base and you should experiment with the ingredients to fine tune to your taste.

Ingredients:
- 1/2 head of green cabbage
- 1/4 head of red cabbage (assuming it is much smaller than the green). I look for about a 8 to 1 ratio for my green to red.
- 2/3 cup fresh coleslaw dressing
- 1 medium size carrot
- Salt/Pepper to taste
Chop the red and green cabbage to a consistency that you prefer. Some like a fine chop and others like longer, more stringy cuts. Dealers choice.
You can do the same with the carrots. Shred, chop, or run them down a box grater. The appearance is more aesthetic than flavor and having all the pieces look similar can be appealing.
Start by cutting the cabbage in half, through the core.
Cut the core out by making angled cuts, trying not to lose too much of the good parts.
You can see I missed a bit and had to cut a little extra. You really don't want to eat the core.

Slice the cabbage vertically into strips and then you can cross cut to the desired shapes.
Do the same with the red cabbage.

Shred your carrot right into the bowl
Next add in the coleslaw dressing and mix well. Adjust with salt, pepper, and more dressing as needed.
