Ingredients

Scale
  • 120 ml mayonnaise
  • 65 g granulated sugar
  • 60 ml whole milk
  • 60 ml buttermilk
  • 38 ml freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 22 ml distilled white vinegar
  • 3 g fine sea salt
  • 0.5 g ground black pepper
  • 800 g finely chopped green cabbage
  • 30 g shredded carrot
  • 20 g minced white onion

Instructions

  1. Prepare your vegetables: Finely chop the green cabbage and carrots to a uniform, rice-sized consistency. This will ensure an authentic texture in your coleslaw. Mince the white onion carefully.
  2. Make the dressing: In a large mixing bowl, vigorously whisk together the mayonnaise, granulated sugar, whole milk, buttermilk, freshly squeezed lemon juice, distilled white vinegar, fine sea salt, and ground black pepper until the mixture is smooth and fully emulsified.
  3. Combine ingredients: Add the chopped cabbage, shredded carrot, and minced onion to the dressing in the bowl. Mix thoroughly until all the vegetables are evenly coated with the dressing.
  4. Chill: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the coleslaw for a minimum of 2 hours. For optimal taste and texture, letting it rest overnight is highly recommended to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.

Notes

For the freshest taste, use freshly shredded cabbage and carrots rather than pre-packaged mixes. Store leftovers in an airtight container and consume within 3-5 days.
