Norweigian Coleslaw Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk together the vinegar, salt, sugar, celery salt, pepper and garlic in a large bowl until combined. Reserve 1/4 cup of the dressing for serving. Toss the green cabbage, red cabbage and carrots in the remaining dressing until the vegetables are completely coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 3.
• Strain the coleslaw through a colander and discard the liquid. Transfer the coleslaw to a serving bowl. Drizzle with the reserved dressing and the oil. Season with salt and pepper if necessary. Toss to coat.

• Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, in a saucepan heat the sugar, vinegar, and seeds, simmering 10 minutes.
• Cool completely.
• Add to the cabbage along with the remaining vegetables.
• Cover and refrigerate at least 24 hours before serving (longer is better).

Steps:

• toss cabbage with salt and chill one hour.
• in a saucepan, heat sugar, vinegar and seasonings.
• cook til sugar dissolves about 10 minutes.
• add to cabbage, along with remaining veggies.

Steps:

• Remove any bruised or damaged outer cabbage leaves. Halve through the stem, and remove the dense core with a sharp knife and discard. Put cut side down onto a chopping board, and slice as finely as you can into thin shreds. You can also do this on a mandoline (you might want to quarter before slicing) or in a food processor with the shredding attachment. Tip into a bowl.
• Grate the carrots on a box grater to coarsely shred, or cut into thin strips using a julienne peeled or the grater attachment on the food processor. Tip into the bowl. Finely slice the onion, and thin as you can, and add to the bowl with the other veg. Add the herbs if using. A mixture is nice if you have some to use up.
• In a jug, whisk the mustard, mayo, yogurt and vinegar. Season well, and taste for sharpness and creamy. Add more vinegar if you like.
• Tip the dressing into the veg bowl, and mix everything together well with a large spoon. Stir so all the veg gets coated lightly in the dressing. Sprinkle with a few pinches of paprika, and serve straight away. Can be covered and chilled for up to 3 days. Mix well before serving.

Steps:

• Toss the cabbage and bell pepper together in a large bowl. Season the mixture liberally with salt; stir. Allow to sit 45 minutes; drain and return to the bowl.
• Bring the vinegar and sugar to a boil together in a saucepan. Immediately remove from heat and stir into the cabbage mixture. Add the celery seed; mix thoroughly. Chill completely before serving.
