Making the dressing
1
|
The first step is to make the dressing. In a large bowl combine the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, honey, salt and pepper.
2
|
Mix all the dressing ingredients until they're fully combined.
Chop the vegetables
1
|
Next you're going to shred the vegetables into thin strips. A good sharp knife will cut through the cabbage creating thin ribbons.
2
|
Cut the apple into small matchstick shaped pieces.
3
|
The carrots can be difficult to cut into thin matchstick pieces, so once I've peeled the exterior of the carrot, I use the vegetable peeler to create ribbons to add to the coleslaw.
4
|
Once your vegetables are all chopped, combine them with the dressing and mix until fully dressed.
5
|
You can serve the coleslaw immediately, but ideally you'll give it at least an hour for all the flavors to combine.
6
|
When you're ready to serve chop up your choice of nut and sprinkle over the coleslaw. My favorite nuts to use are pecans or almonds.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Crunch Control 🥬Salt your shredded cabbage and let it sit for 15-20 minutes to draw out excess moisture, ensuring a crisp and not watery coleslaw texture.
- Nut Toasting Magic 🥜Lightly toast almonds or pecans in a dry skillet for 2-3 minutes before adding to the coleslaw to enhance their nutty flavor and provide extra crunch.
- Apple Acid Balance 🍎Choose a tart green apple like Granny Smith and cut it just before mixing to prevent browning and add a bright, acidic counterpoint to the creamy dressing.
- Dressing Depth 🥄Mix the dressing separately and let it sit for 10-15 minutes before combining with vegetables to allow flavors to meld and intensify.
- Make-Ahead Magic 🕰️Prepare coleslaw at least 1-2 hours before serving to allow flavors to develop, but add nuts just before serving to maintain their crispness.
