MOM'S "HOT" COLESLAW

Steps:

• 1. Combine cabbage, carrot and onion in large bowl (preferably one with a cover).
• 2. Place vinegar, oil, all the sugar, salt, and mustard into saucepan. Bring to a full boil.
• 3. Pour hot vinegar mixture over cabbage. Toss well (I use a bowl with a lid, and "shake" as my version of tossing).

MOM'S COLE SLAW OR CABBAGE SALAD

Steps:

• Soak cabbage halves in salt water to cover about 20 minutes.
• Rinse cabbage and rinse the bowl.
• Add A LITTLE salt (not too much) and rub into cabbage hard with your hands. Taste for salt. You don't rip the cabbage halves apart to do this; just rub the outside surfaces, because you have to sliver the cabbage in the next step, and you don't want it all messy. (I am not sure why this step is even necessary, but those were the original instructions.).
• Cut the cabbage into fine slivers and place in a large bowl.
• Grate in the carrot (1 if the cabbage head is small; 2 if large).
• Finely dice the green pepper. Mix well. (I didn't show an amount for the green pepper - it is not one of the main vegetables - just use enough to have flecks here and there in the salad, unless you want more.).
• Add mayonnaise - just enough to coat. Mix through.
• Stop here if you want grated cabbage salad.
• Continue with the recipe if you want cole slaw:.
• Mix 1 part apple cider vinegar to 2 parts water.
• Add gradually to cabbage mixture; taste for seasoning.
• Sweeten with whatever sweetener you want to use.
• Cover and refrigerate for a few hours or more for the flavors to develop.

MOM'S COLESLAW

Steps:

• Toss cabbage with 3 tablespoons white vinegar and a few generous pinches of kosher salt. Let stand a few minutes to allow the cabbage to begin to change chemically as it absorbs the ingredients. Add one of the special seasonings in the list. Toss again with 4 tablespoons yogurt. When the cabbage is fully coated, toss with 3 tablespoons mayonnaise. Stir in 2 tablespoons dill weed and serve.
