Frozen Coleslaw
Frozen Coleslaw is prepared by salting shredded cabbage to draw out moisture, then mixing it with shredded carrot and chopped green bell pepper. A hot vinegar-based dressing with sugar and celery seed is poured over the vegetable mixture before freezing. This method yields a slaw that can be stored frozen and thawed for later use, capturing the tangy, slightly sweet, and crisp characteristics of traditional coleslaw in a long-lasting form.
