Description
A classic creamy coleslaw recipe combining a crisp coleslaw mix with a rich, tangy dressing made from mayonnaise, sour cream, and a blend of seasonings. Perfect as a refreshing side dish for picnics, barbecues, or any casual meal.
Ingredients
Coleslaw Mix
- 1 package (14 ounces) coleslaw mix
Dressing
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3/4 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon celery salt
Instructions
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, sugar, seasoned salt, ground mustard, and celery salt until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Toss the coleslaw: Place the coleslaw mix in a large bowl. Add the prepared dressing and toss thoroughly to coat all the cabbage evenly. Optionally, add onion sparingly if desired, noting that its flavor intensifies over time.
- Refrigerate: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate until ready to serve. For best flavor, let the coleslaw sit for several hours or overnight, but consume within a few days to prevent sogginess.
Notes
- If adding onions, use them sparingly as their flavor intensifies over time and may overpower the coleslaw.
- Coleslaw tastes better after sitting in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld.
- Consume within a few days as the slaw may become soggy over time.
