KFC Coleslaw...

Our neighbors also grew cabbage and theirs did MUCH better than ours. I think because their garden is where our new one is, but in their back yard. And it gets better sun. Anyway, they gave us a head of cabbage and Jonathan asked me to make coleslaw with it. He is pretty particular about coleslaw and only likes the KFC slaw and the Chick-fil-a slaw. I found the KFC slaw recipe online and made it. It turned out pretty good! Here is the recipe.




Authentic KFC Coleslaw: The Real Thing

4 1/2 teaspoons tarragon vinegar (key ingredient)
6 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil (I used conola)
3/4 cup chopped onions
2 1/2 cups Miracle Whip (I used Helman's lite mayo)
1 cup sugar
2 carrots
2 heads green cabbage

Mix oil, onions and sugar. Add tarragon vinegar. Fold in mayo. Pour over grated carrots and cabbage. Fold in well. Refridgerate in and air-tight covered dish. Best if made the night before serving (I found this to be VERY true. It was SO much better the next day!)

Apparently the tarragon vinegar is the key. Also, you want to make sure the cabbage is chopped to the size of corn kernals and the carrots the same. This recipe make ALOT! You could easily cut it in half. Oh...and your food processor is your FRIEND in chopping the carrots and cabbage!! Posted by Picasa
