Tips for Making the Perfect Vinegar Slaw
– Thinly slice the cabbage and onion to ensure that they are evenly coated with the dressing. – Let the slaw marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to develop and the cabbage to soften slightly. – Use a high-quality apple cider vinegar for the best flavor. We recommend Bragg’s or another organic brand. – Adjust the sweetness and acidity to your liking by adding more or less honey and vinegar.
