Coleslaw Dressing (So Easy!)
Description
The dressing is made by whisking together mayonnaise with honey, apple cider vinegar, celery seed, salt, and black pepper until smooth. The honey adds a gentle sweetness balanced by the acidity of the vinegar, while celery seeds contribute a subtle herbal note. Salt and pepper season the mixture for depth. The dressing can be served immediately tossed with coleslaw ingredients or stored chilled for later use.
This dressing complements crunchy vegetable salads by adding moisture and flavor without overpowering them. Its creamy texture coats shredded cabbage varieties well, making the salad more palatable and enjoyable. Adjusting honey allows for tailoring sweetness to preference.
The dressing keeps well in the refrigerator for up to one week when stored in a sealed container, making it convenient for meal prepping or adding to salads over several days.
Ingredients
Dressing
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon honey or more if desired, or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon celery seed
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Mix the dressing. Combine mayonnaise, honey, apple cider vinegar, salt, pepper, and celery seeds in a small bowl and whisk together. If you want the dressing to be sweeter, add another tablespoon of honey.
- Serve or store away. You can toss some of the dressing and store the rest away in the fridge for later use.
Notes
- Store the dressing in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Add honey gradually, tasting to adjust the desired sweetness level before serving.
