Cole Slaw

There are many ways to make cole slaw. Some people like it with mayo, others prefer vinegar. I personally like it with spices, vinegar, and a little mayo--the way my mom makes it.

Ingredients:
1/2 Red cabbage
1/2 Savoy or green cabbage
1 large carrot
1 bell pepper
1/4 fennel bulb, or 1 T anise seed
1 T toasted sesame seeds
2 t caraway seeds
1 1/2 t sugar
2 T red wine or rice vinegar
2 heaping T mayo
salt and pepper, to taste

In a food processor, shred the vegetables. Dump into a large bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Stir until thoroughly mixed and refrigerate.




Although I can't help but enjoy a large bowl immediately after mixing everything together, cole slaw tastes best after sitting in the fridge for a few hours.
