Pickle Coleslaw Recipes

PICKLE COLESLAW

Steps:

• Whisk together the honey, vinegar, mayonnaise and mustard in a small bowl. Slowly drizzle in the oil, whisking to combine. Season well with salt and pepper. (Alternatively, add the honey, vinegar, mayonnaise and mustard to a mason jar with a lid, cover and shake well. Add the oil and shake well once more.)
• Combine the cabbage, red onion, Chinese celery and pickles to taste in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and mix well. Taste and season with salt and pepper. For an extra kick of flavor, mix in some pickle juice if using to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

PICKLE SLAW

Steps:

• Whisk together the shallots, mayo, sugar, pickle juice, hot sauce, salt and pepper in a bowl. Let it marinate at room temperature for about 15 minutes to help tone down the shallots.
• Add half of the cabbage to a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, about ten times. Transfer to the bowl with the dressing and repeat with the remaining cabbage. Mix in the carrots. Season to taste and let it sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours or up to overnight. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.

CRISP PICKLED COLE SLAW

Steps:

• Finely shred the 2 different color cabbages(I use a mandolin, but a very sharp knife does just fine).
• Slice the peppers thinly and chop into small pieces.
• Cut the onion into 4 pieces.
• Thinly slice the four pieces and separate into slices.
• Finely julienne the 2 carrots(or more if desired) and cut into small pieces or grate them on a grater.
• Place all the chopped and shredded vegetables into a large bowl.
• In a small saucepan combine the sugar, vinegars, salt and celery seed.
• Bring to a boil.
• Boil for 3 minutes.
• Pour the hot vinegar over the shredded and chopped vegetables.
• Combine well.
• Transfer into large jars to store in the refrigerator.
• Cool before serving.
• This keeps for a very, very long time in the frig and actually gets better after "pickling" for several days.

PICKLED COLESLAW

Steps:

• Combine vinegar, oil, sugar, mustard, and celery seed for dressing in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, combine cabbage, onion, sugar, and salt for coleslaw in a bowl.
• Pour hot dressing over cabbage mixture and mix until incorporated. Place in the refrigerator until chilled, about 2 hours.

LOWCOUNTRY PICKLED COLESLAW

Steps:

• Make the slaw: Put the chopped and diced vegetables in a bowl or other container that will fit in the refrigerator.
• Make the dressing: Crush the garlic, and with the side of a knife work the salt into the clove until it makes a rough paste. Add the garlic paste, ginger, vinegar, oil and 1/3 cup water to a saucepan and bring to a low boil. Cook for 3 or 4 minutes, stirring now and then. Remove from heat. Allow to cool for 1 or 2 minutes, then pour over the vegetables, tossing well to combine. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• Just before serving, toss with the lime juice and a few grinds of black pepper. Taste and add salt if needed.
