Ina Garten’s Vegetable Coleslaw is a classic, creamy cabbage salad with a gourmet twist. She uses freshly shredded vegetables like green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots, combined with a smooth dressing made from mayonnaise, vinegar, and Dijon mustard. It’s all about balance—crunchy, creamy, tangy, and slightly sweet.
½ medium green cabbage, cored and shredded
½ small red cabbage, cored and shredded
4 large carrots, peeled and grated
1½ cups good-quality mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon celery seed (optional)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ cup chopped fresh parsley (optional, for freshness and color)
In a large bowl, combine shredded green cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots. Toss well to distribute evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, sugar, vinegar, celery seed (if using), salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
Pour the dressing over the shredded vegetables. Use tongs or clean hands to toss everything together until fully coated.
Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the cabbage to slightly soften.
Before serving, sprinkle with chopped parsley for added freshness and a pop of green.
