First Post
What the heck do you write about on your first post? Politics? The economy? Sports? Garbage? Bees? Nahh, I will keep it simple and just stick to cabbage and mayonaise, the two primary ingredients of Cole Slaw. Sweet Slaw. Shredded Slaw. Homemade. In a cup at a restaurant. Eat it as a side. Eat it as a snack. With a BBQ. Some Fried Chicken. On top of a sandwich. In a bag lunch. There are numerous types and tastes of Cole Slaw, but one thing I always enjoy is good cole slaw. Weis Markets in Pennsylvania has a good cole slaw. Publix in Florida produces a solid Shreded Slaw. Just had a good cajun cole slaw at Buritto Gallery, thought the portion is pretty small. Actually made some homemade slaw recently for the Super Bowl and it was outstanding. If you have a good cole slaw experience, please feel free to post.

No good experiences with Slaw. Usually just gives me gas but glad there is now a blog named after its main ingredients.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget about the vinegar based Cole Slaw. From the Mid-West that's all I new until I moved to the South.

•3/4 Cup Sugar
•3/4 Cup Vinegar
•3/4 Cup Vegetable Oil
•1 tsp. Dry Mustard (if you have) if not it's ok.
