How to Make Amish Cole Slaw
- In a large bowl, combine 8 cups shredded green cabbage, 1 medium onion (thinly sliced), and ¾ cup granulated sugar. Gently toss to combine.
- In a small saucepan, whisk together 1 cup apple cider vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon celery seed, 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon yellow mustard, and ½ cup vegetable oil.
- Bring the vinegar mixture to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove from heat and let the dressing cool completely to room temperature.
- Pour the cooled dressing over the cabbage mixture.
- Gently toss to coat the cabbage evenly with the dressing.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, for the flavors to meld.
- Before serving, give the slaw another gentle toss. Serve using a slotted spoon to drain off any excess dressing.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
