My husband loves cabbage. He will tear a leaf off a new head of cabbage and eat it like it's candy. Seriously. I enjoy my cabbage when it's made into a slaw and this recipe is fantastic. I had tried many other recipes before this one, and after Lee tasted this, he said "this is my favorite - please make this every time you make cole slaw". I thought, EASY! I can do that! And it is exactly what I've done ever since. This recipe is so easy (like all of the rest of the recipes I post here!). The only thing it requires is 2 hours refrigeration once you have put the ingredients together. www.trebleclefchef.blogspot.com

How To Make old bay cole slaw

  • 1
    Cut the cabbage into wedges. Cut out and discard the hard core from each wedge. Using a food processor fitted with the slicing disk, cut the cabbage into fine shreds. (The cabbage can also be thinly sliced by hand or mandoline - I use an OXO mandoline!). Transfer to a large bowl.
  • 2
    Fit the processor with a shredding disk and shred the carrots. (The carrots can also be shredded by hand using the largest holes of a box grater-shredder - I use the same mandoline for this step too). Add the carrots to the bowl with the cabbage.
  • 3
    Sprinkle the cabbage and carrots with the vinegar and mix well. Stir in the bell pepper strips and green onion.
  • Slaw!!!!

    Add the mayonnaise and Old Bay Seasoning and mix well. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours. Serve cold. NOTE: I tend to use 3/4 C mayo, but I am posting the original recipe here.
