Ingredients
- 1 large onion, grated (I used a white onion)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup white vinegar
- 1 cup vegetable oil*
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon celery seeds
- 1 ounce can pickled jalapenos (I used San Marcos)
Instructions
- Combine sugar and grated onion in a bowl and let stand for 20 minutes.
- Pick out the jalapenos (without the pickling liquid) and add to a food processor or blender. Process until well pulverized.
- Add the pulverized jalapenos and the remaining ingredients to a Mason jar. Add the onion/sugar mixture once the 20 minutes are up.
- Shake, shake, shake!
- Refrigerate for at least 12 hours to let the flavors meld and get all delicious and spicy.*

Notes
- *Nutrition information is approximate and was calculated using an online nutrition calculator.
- DON’T use olive oil. I made this mistake once and, while still tasty, olive oil hardens in the fridge. It got weird.
- If you’re using the OG Mom bomb.com recipe, the flavors meld together more quickly. I'd recommend giving it 2-3 hours or so, until completely chilled.
- It keeps for a long time - up to one month, but I can’t imagine it will last you long enough to find out. You’re gonna want to put it on all kinds of salads. Trust me on this.
- I purchased a bag of Fresh Express 3 Color Deli Coleslaw and used just over a ½ cup of the homemade Coleslaw Dressing on it, then let it sit for 6 hours before serving.
