Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 medium head of cabbage, sliced thinly
- 1 cup minced white onion
- 1 teaspoon table salt
- 1 teaspoon cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 carrot, shredded
- 2 tablespoons minced parsley
Instructions
- In a large colander, combine the sliced cabbage and table salt. Stir well to ensure the salt is evenly distributed. Let the mixture sit for about 15 minutes to allow the cabbage to release its liquid. Afterward, pat the cabbage dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- Transfer the cabbage to a large mixing bowl. Add the minced white onion, shredded carrot, and minced parsley to the bowl and toss to combine.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the cider vinegar, sugar, Dijon mustard, and ground black pepper until the sugar is dissolved and the dressing is well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until all the ingredients are evenly coated.
- Chill the coleslaw in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Notes
For best results, chill the coleslaw for at least 30 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can substitute green cabbage with red cabbage for a colorful twist.
