Coleslaw Dressing
An easy recipe for traditional Coleslaw Dressing that's always better than store-bought. And, it's made with simple pantry ingredients and ready in minutes!
Ingredients
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (see note 1)
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar (see note 2)
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon celery seed
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together mayo, sugar, white wine vinegar, cider vinegar, yellow mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and celery seed. Season to taste with salt and pepper (I like 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper). Cover and chill until serving time.
- To make coleslaw, toss with 1 pound coleslaw mix.
Notes
- Sugar: Honey also tastes great to sweeten this dressing (the flavor will change).
- Vinegar: I prefer a combination of white and cider vinegar here, but you can use all of one kind (or even white wine vinegar). Lemon juice works too.
- Yield: This recipe makes about 1 1/2 cups of dressing which generously dresses 1 pound of coleslaw mix. You'll end up with 6 cups of coleslaw (Six 1-cup servings).
- Storage: Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
- Sitting out at room temperature: Discard any mayo-based coleslaw dressing if left out for more than 2 hours at room temperature.
- Caraway seed. Feel free to use an equal amount of caraway seed for the celery seed in the dressing.
