Instructions
-
Prepare the Dressing: In a measuring cup or cruet, thoroughly combine cider vinegar, sugar, dry mustard, black pepper, and olive oil. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well incorporated. Set aside.
-
Prepare the Vegetables: In a large bowl, combine the shredded red and green cabbages, grated carrots, thinly sliced celery, chopped green onion, diced red and green bell peppers, raisins, chopped fresh parsley, and grated fresh ginger.
-
Combine Dressing and Vegetables: Pour the prepared dressing over the vegetables in the bowl. Gently toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
-
Marinate: Allow the coleslaw to stand at room temperature for about 1 hour to marinate the vegetables and allow the flavors to meld together. This will enhance the taste and texture of the coleslaw.
-
Serve: Once the coleslaw has marinated, give it a final toss to redistribute the dressing, then serve it as a refreshing side dish alongside your favorite main course. Enjoy the delightful crunch and burst of flavors!
Tips:
- For a creamier coleslaw, you can add a dollop of Greek yogurt or mayonnaise to the dressing mixture.
- Customize your coleslaw by adding other crunchy vegetables like shredded broccoli, jicama, or radishes.
- Adjust the sweetness of the dressing by adding more or less sugar according to your taste preferences.
- This coleslaw can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just give it a good stir before serving.
