Tupelo Honey Coleslaw
- Yield 4 to 6 servings
From barbecues to fish-fries, coleslaw is the preferred side. Cooks around the South will swear by theirs. This once is a mash-up of creamy and vinegary, and it's pretty darn good anytime.
Ingredients
- 4 cups shredded green cabbage (from 1 medium cabbage)
- 2 cups shredded red cabbage (from 1 small red cabbage)
- 1 cup peeled, shredded carrot (about 2 large carrots)
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 4 1/2 teaspoons ketchup
- 5 tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons stone-ground mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
- 4 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup canola oil
Instructions
- Combine the green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrot in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine the vinegar, ketchup, and sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Put the vinegar mixture in a food processor and add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, stone-ground mustard, hot pepper sauce, Worcestershire, salt and pepper. Blend and slowly drizzle in the canola oil until the mixture is emulsified.
- Combine the vegetables with the dressing, adding the dressing a little at a time until it suits your personal slaw to dressing ratio. Any leftover dressing can be refrigerated in an airtight container for 1 week.
