Method

  1. If adding cider vinegar, add it to the mayonnaise and mix together well.
  2. Slice or shred the cabbage, as coarsely or finely as desired.
  3. In a large bowl, mix cabbage and onion together with mayonnaise.
  4. Set aside to allow the flavours to merge at least 20 minutes but preferably for a couple of hours.

Notes

  • Savoy cabbage can be used instead of white cabbage
  • Other vegetables can be added to the coleslaw for greater variety, including:
  • Sliced bell peppers (red, yellow, and orange)
  • Grated carrots
  • Chopped nuts (e.g. almonds, walnuts)
  • Some people prefer to sweeten the dressing by adding up to 2 tablespoons of sugar to the mayonnaise and vinegar
  • Spices can be added to the dressing to "liven it up" (e.g. ground black pepper, celery seeds)
