Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup mayonnaise, or to taste
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sugar, or to taste
  • 1 tbsp celery seeds
  • 1 ½ tsp celery salt
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
  • 6 cups shredded green cabbage, about 1 1/2 pounds
  • 4 cups shredded red cabbage, about 1 pound
  • 4 ribs celery, thinly sliced diagonally
  • 2 medium carrots, coarsely grated

Recommended Equipment

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, celery seeds, celery salt, and cayenne pepper. Stir to blend.
    1 cup mayonnaise | 1/2 cup sour cream | 1/4 cup white wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar | 2 tbsp sugar | 1 tbsp celery seeds | 1 1/2 tsp celery salt | 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • Add the shredded green and red cabbage to the bowl along with the celery and carrots.
    6 cups shredded green cabbage | 4 cups shredded red cabbage | 4 ribs celery | 2 medium carrots
  • Toss the vegetables and dressing until well blended. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to chill— the salt in the dressing draws moisture from the cabbage, softening it slightly and allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
  • If you prefer a more generously dressed coleslaw, increase the mayonnaise and sour cream in equal proportions, or simply stir in a little extra mayonnaise before serving.
