Mr. Food was lucky to get this recipe from an aunt of one of his Southern friends. Vinegar Slaw is a nice change of pace from the usual mayonnaise type of coleslaw. It has a unique zippy flavor and all of your favorite ingredients from traditional coleslaw. Serve this up as a refreshing summer side dish at your next picnic, or add a scoop to your plate when you have your next fish fry. However you choose to serve this Vinegar Slaw, everyone will love the unique taste!
What You'll Need
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup white vinegar
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (16-ounce) package shredded green cabbage
What to Do
- In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, vinegar, oil, salt, and pepper over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Place cabbage in a large bowl and add vinegar mixture, tossing until well mixed. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.

I found that the oil is not needed. I use apple cider vinager. It is wonderful!

I cut it to /2 cup of SPLENDA and used toasted sesame Iand celery seeds. rIand celery seeds. I think a 1/4 cup of SPLENDA would work just fine . you need to try it to suit your taste. It really is good!!!

This is the only type of coleslaw I like. It is a lot of sugar, I think that could be cut in half, and be sure to add celery seed. Also I wouldn't use nearly that much oil, just a couple of tablespoons. Since I hate coleslaw made with mayonnaise, I've been faking this type of coleslaw for years. :)

We used such a recipe for coleslaw, but without the sugar! We adjusted the oil-to-vinegar ratio to taste. We never had a mayonnaise-based coleslaw growing up.
