My Own Coleslaw Dressing

Submitted by Bev I Am

"When made with Slaw this is a great recipe to use with Pulled Pork Barbeque. I have been making Cole Slaw this way for years. The slaw is simple to prepare using your food processor to shred the cabbage and carrot. I hope you enjoy it!"

I used this cole slaw in conjunction with the pulled pork barbecue by this same chef and had a heavenly "out of body" experience. This combination defies description, a culinary experience not to be missed. I think this recipe would be appreciated by more than just us "Southerners". It has just the right hint of sweetness.

This is the exact recipe I have been using on my cole slaw for almost 20 years! Sometimes I use lime juice instead of lemon, and often I add a sliced green apple to the mix (add a little more sugar) which is especially good with pork. Yummy stuff!

Made this to go on fried fish sandwiches, very good flavor and the lemon has a much better flavor than the vinegar I normally use.

I HATE cole slaw, and made this for my DH, planning on going with his rating for it, but one taste, and I went back for seconds. This is absolutely fabulous, Bev, and it's made a cole-slaw lover out of me! I made it exactly as directed, with the exception of having to use celery salt instead of celery seeds (thought I had them, but didn't). This was a crunchy, fresh, tart dressing that complemented the sweetness of fresh cabbage and carrots. I'll be making this again (AND looking forward to it!) - great recipe - thanks!

I rarely eat coleslaw but had a hankering for it tonight. I just bought the bagged coleslaw mix and found this recipe for the dressing. This was really good...the lemon gives it a nice fresh taste. The only thing I changed was I didn't have celery seeds so I just put a pinch of celery salt in. Really delicious, thank you for posting!
