Classic Coleslaw with Creamy Dressing
This tangle of cabbage and carrot is dressed with a balance of tangy mustard, mayonnaise, and creamy sour cream to create the standard slaw.

07/26/2014 Great recipe. This was my second time making coleslaw- I really appreciated the addition of sour cream, lemon & the dijon mustard. Not too heavy, good balance of tangy and savory flavors. Even better the next day!

05/09/2014 Beautiful recipe --- a great base version that you can tweak & add a few other additions as your preference requires. I love the addition of a granny smith apple & a little fresh parsley. I tend to skip purple cabbage as always more expensive than basic cabbage --- and, it always bleeds. The apple & onion addition as a little bit more depth to Martha's GREAT starting point.

05/05/2014 This recipe is very good. I do not understand people that give a good review then changes the recipe differently. Then writes what would have made it better!

05/24/2011 Tasty & tangy! I added 1/4 C of chopped green onions for more flavor and turns out very well:)

06/19/2010 I used maple syrup instead of sugar and it added a nice, full sweetness rather than a bright sweetness.

12/31/2007 You would have thought my guests had never eaten cole slaw from the raves this side dish drew! It was crispy and creamy -- worth taking the time to make from scratch (and a great use for a mandoline).
