Crisp Tart Cole Slaw Recipes

CRISP-TART COLE SLAW

Steps:

• 1. Combine cabbage, onion and pepper in a bowl. Sprinkle salt over top and pour boiling water over all; let stand at room temperature for 1 hour. Drain in colander.
• 2. Combine sugar, vinegar, oil, celery and mustard seeds; add to cabbage mixture.
• 3. Stir in pimento. Cover and refrigerate.
• 4. I like it to set for at least 30 minutes but an hour is better. Some things I have learned through the years. The 1 cup water can be increased to enough to cover the cabbage. I usually use at least 3 cups. I cut the sugar to 1/2 cup, personal preference. I make the dressing while the cabbage soaks and I have even heated it for 1 minute to melt the sugar and meld the flavors. The water soak works really well to take the excess moisture from the cabbage, even if making other recipes.
