A simple, delicious homemade cabbage slaw with a sweet and tangy vinaigrette! Dress the cabbage the day before to allow it to wilt slightly, then toss with radicchio and toasted almonds the next day to add crunch. It is a wonderful accompaniment to almost any meal and is especially nice with grilled meat, poultry, or seafood or enjoy it straight up.
Coleslaw was initially created in the Netherlands. The term coleslaw originates from the Dutch (koolsla) that combines the kool, meaning "cabbage," and sla, meaning "salad.

 
  • 500 g Sweetheart cabbage, thinly shredded
  • 60 ml Apple cider vinegar (preferably with the mother)
  • 1 tbsp Xylitol or caster sugar
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly milled black pepper
  • 1/4 Radicchio, torn
  • 2 tbsp Flat leaft parsley leaves, coarsely chopped
  • 65 g Slivered almonds, toasted
  • 80 g Parmesan, shaved
  1. Trim the core out of the cabbage and shred it with a mandoline, a box grater or a sharp knift finely into a large glass, ceramic, or stainless steel bowl.
  2. Combine the apple cider vinegar, xylitol or sugar and mustard in a small saucepan and whisk over medium heat until warmed. Whisk in the olive oil. Season. Pour over the cabbage. Toss to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight.
  3. Remove cabbage mixture from the fridge. Drain and discard the vinegar mixture. Toss the radicchio and parsley leaves through the cabbage and serve topped with the toasted almonds and shaved Parmesan.

  8. When seasoned with vinegar, the cabbage takes on a nice pink color.

  9. I have been making coleslaw all week. For whatever reason I’m craving it. I don’t have radicchio, so I can’t make your version this week, but I’m going to try it next week.

  16. Hi Angie, That is a great looking slaw! I just wish that my medication would allow me to enjoy it. As we get older, we end up giving up food we enjoy... Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

  22. I like that you dress the cabbage overnight for it to wilt slightly, and allow flavors to develop into the slaw
