Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 4 cups shredded green cabbage
  • 1 cup shredded carrots

Dressing

  • 1/2 cup plant-based mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar (natural)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Start by finely shredding the green cabbage and carrots. The key is to get thin, even shreds so every bite has a perfect crunch and the flavors meld uniformly.
  2. Mix the Dressing: In a separate bowl, combine plant-based mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar (natural), brown sugar (natural), celery seed, salt, black pepper, and the natural gelling agent. Whisk vigorously until smooth and creamy with no lumps.
  3. Combine and Toss: Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables. Toss everything gently but thoroughly using tongs or two large spoons, making sure every shred is coated.
  4. Chill for Crispness: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and chill the coleslaw in the refrigerator for at least one hour to let the flavors marry and the natural gelling agent work its magic, giving the salad the perfect texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh cabbage and carrots for the best clean crunch.
  • Shred vegetables evenly to help the dressing coat each piece thoroughly.
  • Do not skip chilling; it enhances flavor and texture.
  • Taste the dressing before mixing; adjust sweetness with extra brown sugar (natural) if needed.
  • Serve the coleslaw cold straight from the refrigerator for the best taste.
