Face it! Slaw is simply a direct address of texture and taste to the tongue.
Commonly, cabbage and carrots and broccoli, etc are used for their stoutness to the blade and mouth.
They can be sliced, diced, julienned or blender prepared into different degrees of coarseness and looseness, length and grandular variations.
Then presented with a dressing by which this texture is colored with flavors.
My offering here is actually a version of dressing.
3 tbl Mayonnaise
3 tbl Grainy Mustard
1 tbl Prepared Mustard
1 tbl Sugar
1 tbl Apple Vinegar
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tbl Dried Diced Onion reconstituted in rice vinegar
