1 head of green cabbage, grated or shredded -i sometimes combine and add red and green cabbage*
1 1 onion, slicde in thin rings - cut rings 1 or 2 times (if you like the flavor of onions -but not the onions, leave the rings whole and remove before serving)
3/4 c sugar
1 tsp sugar
3/4 c salad oil
3/4 - 1 c white vinegar
1 tsp salt
1 tsp celery seed
1 tsp dry mustard (or 3 teaspoons prepared mustard)

Steps:

1. Combine first two ingredients and sprinkle 3/4 cup of sugar on top.
2. Mix together 1-teaspoon sugar, celery seed, vinegar, mustard and salt in a saucepan. Heat to boiling. Add salad oil; again bring to a boil and then simmer for two minutes.
3. Pour over slaw mixture; mix well. Cover tightly and refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Enjoy!
4. * If desired, add 1 grated carrot and 1 cup diced celery to slaw.
5. NOTE 1: You may add Onion or Italian Dressing -instead of the oil and vinegar (or 1/4 pkg. Onion Dressing), if desired. I like the original recipe -above, myself.
6. NOTE 2: This will keep up to a week in the refrigerator -if it lasts that long.
