One step at a time

Let’s make it

  1. Combine cabbage and carrot in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Toss dressing with vegetables until evenly coated.
  4. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes. Toss again before serving, lifting the vegetables through any dressing at the bottom.

A little kitchen know-how

Shred the cabbage thinly so every forkful has a balanced amount of dressing.

Storage & leftovers

Keep refrigerated and use within 3 days. Do not leave at room temperature longer than 2 hours.
