ZOE'S FETA COLE SLAW



Zoe's Feta Cole Slaw image

This is a little different from most coleslaws because it is vinegar based and has feta cheese in it. I love the slaw at Zoe's so I tried to re-create it and think I came pretty close. Not sure of the exact measurements so I just estimated them on here. Great for as a side for a BBQ. The cook time includes refrigeration.

Time 8h15m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 small head of cabbage, thinly sliced
1 (6 ounce) package crumbled feta
6 -7 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup red wine vinegar (I used a splash of white vinegar along with this)
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt
pepper
1 -2 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Combine shredded cabbage, feta and chopped green onions in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together vinegar, salt, pepper, sugar, and EVOO.
  • Pour over the slaw and toss.
  • Refrigerate until ready to serve. It's best if you let it refrigerate for a few hours so you may want to make it the day before.

AWESOME COLESLAW DRESSING



Awesome Coleslaw Dressing image

I really do love good coleslaw; however, the stuff you get at the store is usually drowned in this unappealing dressing. What's a chef to do? Answer: Go into the test kitchen and make up one of my own. This is one of my shorter recipes, but some of the best recipes have the fewest steps. So, you ready... let's get into...

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 medium head of cabbage (i prefer napa)
3 green onions, thinly sliced (white, and some of the green parts)
1/4 c flat leaf parsley
4 medium radishes, thinly sliced
black pepper, roughly ground, to taste
kosher salt, to taste
THE DRESSING
1 medium egg
1 1/2 Tbsp white wine vinegar
3 tsp capers, drained
1/3 c vegetable or grapeseed oil

Steps:

  • 1. THE DRESSING
  • 2. Place the egg, vinegar, and capers into the bowl of a food processor fitted with an S-blade, and blend at high speed until smooth.
  • 3. Chef's Tip: This recipe does call for using uncooked egg, so make sure you know that your eggs are fresh. I work with uncooked eggs all the time, and have not yet had any problems, but that's because I'm careful when dealing with raw products, and you should too.
  • 4. Slowly pour in the oil (still running at high speed), until the ingredients emulsify.
  • 5. Chef's Note: What is an emulsification? To emulsify means combining two liquids together which normally don't mix easily. The ingredients are usually oil or a fat like olive oil or egg yolks, and another liquid like water or broth. Acidic liquids like lemon juice (in our case vinegar) help the process by changing the pH of the mixture. The liquids are combined very slowly, usually drop by drop, while mixing vigorously, which suspends drops of liquid throughout each other. Bearnaise, hollandaise, and mayonnaise are examples of emulsified foods.
  • 6. THE COLESLAW
  • 7. Chef's Note: I don't usually mix the dressing with the cabbage; instead I place the cabbage on a plate and drizzle the dressing on top.
  • 8. Slice the half cabbage into 1/4 inch sections, and place on a serving plate.
  • 9. Spoon a generous portion of the dressing on top.
  • 10. Sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper. Add the onions, parsley, and radishes over the top in a decorative way (we eat first with our eyes). Makes an excellent side dish. Enjoy.
  • 11. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
