My sister-in-law gave me this recipe over 50 years ago and it's still a hit at potluck dinners. I made it for company once, and they came by the next day with a large head of cabbage, hoping to exchange it for the recipe. -Joyce LeMonds, Castle Rock, Washington

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small head green cabbage
1/2 small head red cabbage
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup white wine vinegar, such as Chardonnay
1 to 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons celery seeds
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup matchstick carrots
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Remove and discard tough outer leaves from the green cabbage. Cut the head in half, cutting through the core. Use the tip of the knife to remove the core from both halves, then cut each half into quarters. Slice each quarter thinly into short strips. Repeat with the red cabbage and place both in a large bowl.
  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar and celery seeds in a small bowl, then season with salt and pepper. Add more sugar as desired. Toss the cabbage with half the dressing, then lay in a shallow dish (a 9-by-13-inch baking dish works well). Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Once cabbage has marinated in the dressing, taste and add reserved dressing as desired. Add the carrots and parsley and toss to combine.

My friends and I often take this coleslaw to weddings (like the one in the photo above) and other gatherings."
