CREAMY COLESLAW WITH BELL PEPPERS & RED ONION

Creamy Coleslaw With Bell Peppers & Red Onion image

Although I usually think of coleslaw as a summertime side dish, it seems to go really well with my Super Bowl spread. I serve pulled pork with baked beans and some of this lovely, creamy coleslaw, then sit back and collect the compliments! Again, this makes a LOT, so adjust accordingly. This recipe is easily increased or decreased. Use a 16-ounce package of coleslaw mix for every six guests.

PIERRE FRANEY'S COLESLAW

Pierre Franey's Coleslaw image

Pierre Franey, that consummate reinterpreter of American cooking, provided this recipe for a Dijon-and-honey spiked coleslaw to The Times in a "60 Minute Gourmet" column in 1990. (It takes much less time to prepare than that.) The result pairs beautifully with any fried seafood and many grilled meats, particularly those scented with soy or curry. It will improve in flavor over the course of a few hours, so it is a good recipe to make in the heat of a weekend day, ahead of an evening barbecue.
