Howdy KKers!
Below is a recipe for a vinegar based cole slaw from a very famous seafood restaurant, Herman's Seafood, here in OKC. The restaurant closed some years ago, but the recipe survives. I serve this about about half the cooks I do and it's a must have for pulled pork sammies! Enjoy!
Herman’s Cole Slaw
Ingredients:
1 head cabbage, thinly sliced
2 onions, thinly sliced
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 - 3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 bottles of sliced pimentos
Directions:
Shred cabbage & onions. Cover with the 1/2 cup sugar. Set aside for about one hour. Boil vinegar, 2 Tbsp sugar, mustard, salt, and celery seed; pour over cabbage while hot. Add grated diced pimientos. Add garlic & salad oil. Let set 24 hours; serve cold. It is quite tart, so add sugar "to taste". Will keep in refrigerator for weeks.
