Follow up to Yesterday

At the cooking class today I made this Cole Slaw.  It is the basic recipes but was voted the best of the day by all those who tasted it.  Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best.

1 Head of Green Cabbage
2 Carrots
1 Green Pepper
1/4 of a white onion - GRATED FINE
2 cups of Mayonnaise
1/2 Cup of Sugar
1/4 Cup of Apple Cider Vinegar

I use a Food processor to slice the cabbage thin.  I cut the cabbage into quarters and then cut out the core before I run them through the processor. Put the cabbage in a VERY large bowl so you have room to mix the slaw.

Shred the carrots - add to the cabbage
Cut the pepper and take out the seeds and membranes. Using the same processor, put the steel blade in the work bowl and pulse until the pepper is a small dice. Do not puree - just a small dice.  - Add to the cabbage and the carrots.  Mix until all the vegetable are combined,.

Dressing
In small bowl add the sugar and the vinegar and stir to moisten the sugar and help it to dissolve.  Add the Mayonnaise and stir until all the sugar has melted.   Add to the vegetables and mix until all the dressing has been used and the slaw is coated with the dressing.  Cover and chill for three hours.  Great on a hot day like today!
