Mocked Kentucky Fried Chicken's Cole Slaw (We can make it better and easier...KFC slaw has more fat in it than their fries.)The home grown fresher cabbage adds a better taste to the slaw and far more nutrition that we get from this vegetable. It’s one of the good cancer fighters. If not this recipe, then experiments with other cabbage recipes till you find the one your family likes then serve at least twice a month. Adding in more herbs or spices and other vegetables only makes it richer in added flavors, deliciously, nutritious, and a more complete meal when served with fresh corn bread. It's not organic unless the product has this green label.
This is a method recipe. I use a food processor for this salad. Or if you don’t have a food processor (chopper) to cut the cabbage in thin, smaller pieces, then, dice in fine shreds or some stores they carry the very finely shredded cabbage in bags. Be sure to wash off all chemicals, for that matter, any thing that is “sacked,” and dry and drain well.
Cut the amount of cabbage for your family that is needed. It does not store to long in fridge after adding in a good mono style mayo.
Add the carrots the size depending on the size and then go more by color… sparingly. You don’t want a strong carrot taste, just a tease, but adding in beta-carotene. Combine the liquids with the seasonings and beat till smooth. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving. Add the liquids to the cabbage and carrots etc. and toss well.
· Finely chopped organic or fresh in seasoned cabbage or, buy coleslaw mix (wash off chemicals)
· Shredded carrots
· 1-2 Tbs sugar (to taste)
· Instead of sugar add in raisins
· Sea Salt
· Fresh ground pepper
Liquids:
· ¼ cup milk
· ½ cup mayonnaise
· ¼ buttermilk
· 1 ½ tbs. vinegar (white)
· 2-½ tbs. lemon juice (Fresh?)
Secret is out! Or, skip these steps and go for the mocked KFC style. Use Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing seasoning. Make it fresh and follow directions on the package. 3 tbs. of powder in jar HVD equals one packet. It’s basically the same as above, but KFC uses a powdered mix with dairy rather than making it up with all fresh ingredients each time. However Hidden Valley has added spices…(watch out Food Company’s can add in anything under this cover! MSG…we will never know.) But, it’s nice in a pinch. (Builds the body up with the vegetables, at the same time, tear it down with added chemicals?) Hello... (I keep pt. of *buttermilk in my fridge at all times and add my own spices mix it with sour cream and/or mayo and same thing...and so much cheaper.
*8 cups of slaw will serve 6-8 (If you buy a Cole slaw mix be sure to wash away their preservatives (Use a vinegar spray for any e coli i.e.)
*Buttermilk, vinegar, sour cream, soft or organic cheeses i.e. are all probiotic formented foods...and are good for our gut health. (When not frozen or heated) These products also have a long shelf life. A start of a bit of left-over buttermilk added to milk like yogurt can be made easily at home.
