[–] SeeMinusMinus@lemmy.world 41 points 1 year ago

Everyone here seems to either really like coleslaw or completely hate it. I am on team coleslaw yum: the only correct option.

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

[–] JoYo@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 months ago

The overly sweet crap at most restaurants can go straight in the trash.

Make better coleslaw maybe?

[–] Supervisor194@lemmy.world 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Spicy cole slaw topping a sandwich made of slow-smoked pulled pork is absolute nirvana.

My colleague's ex made the best coleslaw. It was actually edible, and was delicious.

The flavor of coleslaw varies as much as any other dish.
Fresh veggies and a tasty dressing? Awesome.
Shelf stable, premixed, and squeezed out of a bag at a fast food chain? Complete garbage.

You eat what you like, I’ll eat what I like.

I didn't like coleslaw until I ate it as a condiment. Alone it's not my thing at all. In a sandwich? On top of pulled pork? Awesome stuff.

[–] NightAuthor@artemis.camp 7 points 1 year ago

You’ve had the creamy kind right? Bc I’ve had some “coleslaw” that wasn’t and that just ain’t right.

huh? coleslaw is amazing

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 year ago

As a southern cook, where and when would you like me to pit smoke you and serve you on a bun with a nice aise of slaw?

This is the wrongest thing I've ever read in my damn life!

[–] JayJay@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I like cabbage and coleslaw just has a very wide range of good and bad. I've had coleslaw that tastes like a bar of soap, and I've had coleslaw that's delicious. For me, cabbage is better than lettuce on a sandwich though, so im biased af.

I once ordered a Reuben at a deli and they made with coleslaw instead of sauerkraut. I said that is not a Reuben and I'm not paying for it.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

Amen!

I fucking love me some slaw, but a Reuben by definition has kraut, period.

How come only fried chicken restaurants have good coleslaw? Any other restaurants or store bought I've tried have been terrible, but chicken places always have the good shit.

Coleslaw is good as long as it’s kept cold. Room temperature or higher coleslaw is horrid! To be fair, that applied to a lot of salads though.

Coleslaw is food you give to someone you hate. Mayo and cabbage? What did I knock up your sister or something? Please give me something with even one goddamn spice in it.

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

See, there's the problem.

Slaw ain't mayo and cabbage. It's more of a cabbage salad, the way you make chicken salad, or whatever.

It's all about the extras, the mayo is just the carrier, and the slaw is your base.

You have to bring pepper to the mix, or you're wasting your time. A bit of apple cider vinegar too. From there, it's about fine tuning.

The carrots are optional, obviously. And I've seen raisins added when there's carrots, and it's here than it sounds.

But. Spice wise, you should bring a touch of paprika to the mix, a little pinch of cumin maybe, and some ground red pepper to give that kick underneath those.

Gotta be friendly with your salt cellar, but not too crazy.

And, believe it or not, the tiniest hint of sugar. I'm talking a literal pinch of the stuff per head of cabbage. Maybe two if you're feeling weird. It enhances the spices, makes the vinegar more subtle, and amplifies the salt so you don't have to use as much salt. Kinda like how a tiny bit of salt in sweet things can let you use less sugar and still get the flavor right.

Keep your cabbage spread small, smaller than you think it should be. The smallest size in most graters is where you want to be.

Now, instead of this bland mess, you've got something that pops and brings its own taste to the party.
