MM, Pretty much your basic, except I was out of a couple things and that got my mind working. (No Coronas yet). Probably good that you're forcing me to remember.
I medium to large head of green cabbage shredded I small to medium head of red cabbage shredded 2 slices off a large red onion chopped 1 large carrot finely chopped 1/3 stalk of celery finely chopped (didn't have celery seed; probably a good thing, looking back) Used half and half, instead of milk and/or buttermilk. about 1/3 to 1/2 cup (All I had was skim and no buttermilk) 2 tbsp white vinegar 1/3 cup of sugar (thought it was too much, but I didn't have it mixed well enough yet) 1 - 1/2 cups Hellman's mayo (I'm sure Dukes would work, too) 2 tsp kosher salt fresh ground pepper juice of 1 lime 1 handful of fresh cilantro chopped
If I had to put my finger on what made it different and good, I'd say using less liquid and using half and half, lime instead of lemon, celery instead of celery seed, and the cilantro were the difference.
Slaves get what they need. Free men get what they want.
